New York Times Bestselling Author Anthony Flacco Praises Steve Jackson’s True Crime Classic ROUGH TRADE

“This taut and well-told crime tale …”

Rough Trade Cover

ROUGH TRADE. New York Times bestseller Steve Jackson’s classic shocking true crime story of prostitution, murder and redemption is available now!

“… take does a fine job of getting into the heads of the principal players. JoJo Cordova is a perfect representation of a good person subjected to a dangerous drug addiction can go from being a working police officer to a working prostitute desperate for her next hit of crack. ‘

Anthony Flacco

New York Times Bestseller Anthony Flacco

“Jackson writes with clarity and precision, and never strays into schmaltzy emotion when describing the horrors of these “rough trade” lifestyles. He writes with compassion but by no means does he glorify or excuse the criminality here. He offers understanding. And in the world of true crime, what better goal can a book have?” — Anthony Flacco
