Resurrection Blues
"Flynn Robinson is 18 years old and has just made the most important decision of his life. Excited by an offer to play lead guitar in a top club band, he has opted to drop out of his last year of high school." [from back cover]
It's a loud, fast and gritty life, filled with raw urgency, women, drugs, and most of all the power of music. But Flynn is soon faced with the kinds of decisions he'd never imagined confronting.
"I fiddle around a little more on the Gibson. 'What do you want for this?'
'Five hundred will do me,' he says. 'And your word that you won't say anything about who sold it to you.'
Okay, it's hot. Could it be traced? Am I taking a big risk here? Probably not. It's almost certain that this guy didn't lift it. Most likely it's not even from this part of the country -- these items move far and fast, just like those cops said when they were talking about my Telly." [from p. 188]
