Guardian Bookshop Notes:
The crime-infested intersection of West Fayette and Monroe Streets in Baltimore is a notorious 24-hour open-air drug market, which provides the economic fuel for an otherwise dying neighbourhood. Simon and Burns, creators of TVs "The Wire" offer a devastating portrait of the American drugs culture.
Publisher's description:
The crime-infested intersection of West Fayette and Monroe Streets is well-known - and cautiously avoided - by most of Baltimore. But this notorious corner's 24-hour open-air drug market provides the economic fuel for a dying neighborhood. This book tells the story of this desolate crossroad.
