About this product

Product Information

Detective Milo Dragovitch spends too much time boozing until he gets caught up in a case involving two-bit criminals and an old lady on the run. His friends call him Milo. No one has ever called him Bud except his father, long dead, and now Sarah Weddington, stirring painful memoires and offering him his first case since he abandoned his private practice and took a job marking time on the night shift for Haliburton Security. The case seems almost too easy, hardly worth the large fee, just to satisfy this old woman's curiosity. But things are soon exploding all over the place and Milo is turning up grenades, machine guns, a kilo of marijuana and a bag of coke . . . and suddenly Milo is on the run.

Reviews
"A taut, stirring, highly original thriller." -- The Philadelphia Inquirer "Crumley works with fever on the brow, and the most lyrical and true English sentences I've seen lately. Dancing Bear  is a wonder of compression, truth and wisdom." --Barry Hannah "Top-notch . . . an imaginative narrative sense, chaotic and even manic, but violently dramatic . . . excitingly new." -- The Los Angeles Times Book Review "A clear triumph." -- The Plain Dealer " Dancing Bear  is a powerful novel by a writer of extraodinary power who mixes humor with blood, environmental issues with cocaine jangles and post-coital blues, the Dancing Bear Wilderness Area of Montana with peppermint schnapps and hopelessness." -- The El Paso Herald Post "Extremely well-written." -- The New York Times Book Review  "If you like your detective fiction tough and tenacious you will love James Crumely. . . . No one does it better." -- The Houston Chronicle   "James Crumley is a first-rate American writer.... pyrotechnically entertaining, sexy, compassionate." -- The Village Voice
