STREET OF THE LOST Ruxton Street is like a big snake. Everyone it touches, it swallows. It even looks like a snake. It's always wet with saliva and phlegm and urine and spilled wine and whisky and homemade powerhouse. There is always dirty water in the gutters.Many times Lawrence tries to get away from it, but something always pulls him back. Back to his wife and her drunken family. Back to Hagen... Bully that he is, Hagen rules the Street. He rules it with his fists-and Pancho's knife. Lawrence has always steered clear of Hagen, refusing to get involved. He lets the Street be the Street, turns his back on Hagen's crimes. But when Hagen rapes and kidnaps the Chinese girl, something shifts in him. Hagen takes him aside, tries to figure if he can still trust Lawrence. He's lived on the Street so long, even Lawrence doesn't know the answer to that one.

David Goodis was an American crime novelist and short-story writer whose work became central to the tradition of noir fiction. Born in Philadelphia in 1917, Goodis wrote for pulp magazines, paperback publishers, and Hollywood, developing a bleak, recognisable style built around defeated men, dangerous longing, urban decay, and the grim machinery of fate. His fiction helped define the emotional terrain of mid-century American noir: not merely crime as plot, but crime as pressure, collapse, obsession, and doomed desire. Admired by readers of classic noir, hard-boiled fiction, pulp crime, and vintage paperback originals, Goodis remains one of the distinctive dark voices of American crime writing.
