For many people, Vancouver is a city of affluence, athleisure, and craft beer. But if look a little closer at this gentrified paradise, youโll find the old saying holds true: behind every fortune thereโs a crime. Hidden beneath Vancouverโs gleaming glass skyscrapers are shadowy streets where poverty, drugs, and violence rule the day. These fourteen stories of crime and mayhem in the Pacific Northwest offer an entertaining โmix of wily pros, moody misfits, bewildered bystanders, and a touch of the supernaturalโ (Kirkus).
