A truck hijacking on a New York street goes badly awry in this new novel from an author who writes “top-notch hard-boiled crime fiction” (Booklist). It was a sure thing. A truck with a thousand cartons of cigarettes, at a wholesale price of sixty dollars each. Mike Tedesco had thought through the foolproof plan for the early-morning hijacking. The only tricky part was disabling the GPS system that enabled the owner to track the truck and its valuable contents. He brought along the expert who swore he could do it in three minutes. He couldn’t, so Tedesco shot him dead in the middle of the rainy street in uptown Manhattan before fleeing the scene. NYPD Detective Dante Cepeda is called in and quickly decides he can solve this one—his great joy—as he explains to the attractive redheaded sergeant who works the case with him. The hunt leads Cepeda to a Russian mafioso, Tedesco’s gorgeous girlfriend, a curse that needs a blood sacrifice, and a scarred pit bull who’s survived a life of dogfights. A gritty tale of greed and casual violence, the latest crime novel from the Hammett Prize nominee is realistic, shocking, and relentlessly compelling. “Solomita knows his city and his people, and he writes with both muscle and sensitivity.” —Los Angeles Times “A keen observer of humanity.” —Publishers Weekly “A master at capturing on paper the flavor of streetwise cops and robbers and their victims.” —Library Journal “Solomita has Elmore Leonard’s flair for letting you view the world through his character’s eyes, no matter how narrow or how bloodshot.” —The New York Times

Owen Linton-House grows up living his parents' hopes and dreams, but when he is expelled from school, he leaves home in shame, the day before his eighteenth birthday. Living in a squat in Battersea, he rescues an Afghan Hound, becomes addicted to heroin, and ends up smuggling drugs out of Amsterdam for a Russian cartel. When MI6 make him an offer he cannot refuse, Owen starts to live out a real-life spy thriller, caught up in an international drugs network, living and working in Canada and Afghanistan, trying to find the source of the drugs, how they are brought into the country, and who is responsible. Throughout his adventure, Owen is searching for love, for his own identity, and for a measure of redemption, vowing to return home when he is thirty. It is his sister, Helen, who writes his story. Owen's adventure is framed by rain, snow and scorching heat. He is introduced to Mayakovsky's 'The Bathhouse,' to steam baths, and to steamy relationships. He is drawn into the shady world of drugs, of cannabis, heroin, ecstasy, and amphetamines. In spite of his mistakes, it is hard not to feel compassion for Owen, and "Rain, Steam and Speed" prompts the reader to ponder if we can ever really break free from our pasts, our parents' expectations, the consequences of our poor choices, and our addictions.
