Resumen del Editor
When Miami homicide detective Hoke Moseley receives an unexplained order to let his beard grow, he doesn't think much about it. He has too much going on at home, especially with a man he helped convict 10 years before moving in across the street. Hoke immediately assumes the worst, and considering he has his former partner, her newborn, and his two teenage daughters living with him, he doesn't like the situation one bit. It doesn't help matters when he is suddenly assigned to work undercover, miles away, outside of his jurisdiction and without his badge, his gun, or his teeth. Soon he is impersonating a drifter and trying to infiltrate a farm operation suspected of murdering migrant workers. But when he gets there for his job interview, the last thing he is offered is work.
In this final installment of the highly acclaimed Hoke Moseley novels, Charles Willeford's brilliance and expertise show on every page. Funny, thrilling, and disturbing in equal parts, The Way We Die Now is a triumphant finish to one of the most original detective series of all time.

After 10 years of cleaning up the dirt on Atlanta's streets, Callahan Garrity is trading in her badge for a broom and a staff of house cleaners. But, though the uniform is a little different, Callahan soon finds herself right back in the middle of a mystery when a client's pretty, pious 19-year-old nanny is gone...along with the jewelry, silver, and a few rather sensitive real estate documents. Before she knows it, the meticulous Callahan is up to her elbows in a case involving illicit love triangles, crooked business deals, long-distance scams, and a dead body.

He doesn't get many visitors, but a body found near his home has drawn police attention to his front door. The victim is not one of the many illegal immigrants who risk their lives to cross the border just south of the Hole, but is instead a member of one of the local Indian tribes.

After the stunning historical novels The Clearing and The Missing, Tim Gautreaux now ranges freely through contemporary life with 12 new stories and eight from previous collections. Most are set in his beloved Louisiana, many hard by or on the Mississippi River, others in North Carolina, and even in midwinter Minnesota. But generally it's heat, humidity, and bugs that beset his people as they wrestle with affairs of the heart, matters of faith, and the pros and cons of tight-knit communities.

The FBI chief knows that if he can somehow manage to get Capone to reveal details of crimes he and his Outfit committed, the Bureau has a good chance of nailing key members who now are active in the wartime black market.

Lucie Montgomery's semi-estranged brother, Eli, calls her in France to tell her that their father, Leland, has been killed in a hunting accident on the family's 500-acre Virginia vineyard. But the vineyard is now shabby and run-down and her siblings want to sell it. Then Lucie's godfather tells her Leland's death was no accident. With her greedy brother, hell-raising sister, and a seemingly cut-rate vintner hired by Leland just before he died, all the suspects are disturbingly close to home.

In a world where his three true, bitter pleasures are women, booze, and racetrack betting, he somehow drags his hangover out of bed every dawn to lug waterlogged mailbags up mud-soaked mountains, outsmart vicious guard dogs, and pray to survive the day-to-day trials of sadistic bosses and certifiable coworkers.

My life was ordinary until three years ago when I was thrown out of a downtown hotel window. My name is Robbie Brownlaw, and I am a homicide detective for the city of San Diego. I am 29 years old. I now have synesthesia, a neurological condition where your senses get mixed up. Sometimes when people talk to me, I see their voices as colored shapes provoked by the emotions of the speakers, not by the words themselves. I have what amounts to a primitive lie detector.

She was leaning against the door. Her smile was a sickly twisted grimace; the sort a prisoner gives a judge when he's asked if he has anything to say before he's sentenced. Russell Haxby is a ruthless used-car salesman obsessed with manipulating and cavorting with married women. In this classic of hard-boiled fiction, Charles Willeford crafts a wry, sardonic tale of hypocrisy, intrigue, and lust set in San Francisco in the early '50s.

Historia
Fast-talking, backstabbing, womanizing, and fiercely ambitious art critic James Figueras will do anything - blackmail, burglary, and beyond - to make a name for himself. When an unscrupulous collector offers Figueras a career-making chance to interview Jacques Debierue, the greatest living - and most reclusive - artist, the critic must decide how far he will go to become the art-world celebrity he hungers to be. Will Figueras stop at the opportunity to skim some cream for himself or push beyond morality's limits to a bigger payoff?

Historia
The unblinking story of two lost and self-destructive drifters - a failed painter working as a counterman in a cheap diner and a woman in flight from domestic violence - trying to find a place for themselves in the back streets of San Francisco, Pick-Up is hardboiled writing at its nihilistic best.

Historia
She was leaning against the door. Her smile was a sickly twisted grimace; the sort a prisoner gives a judge when he's asked if he has anything to say before he's sentenced. Russell Haxby is a ruthless used-car salesman obsessed with manipulating and cavorting with married women. In this classic of hard-boiled fiction, Charles Willeford crafts a wry, sardonic tale of hypocrisy, intrigue, and lust set in San Francisco in the early '50s.

Why would a happily married Florida housewife pick up her husband's .22 caliber Colt Woodsman semi-automatic pistol and use it to kill her two young children and herself?

So sad this is over
This story requires a followup, but the author has passed away, and unless James Patterson picks it up, there won't be any more. It's been quite good all along, and I'm sad to see it end like this.

Original story
It was good. My only criticisms are these. It is a little try hard at being unpredictable, and I didn't like how it ended.

WILLEFORD WAS A QUIET GENIUS
I've had this book in paperback for decades, and must have re-read it literally a hundred + times. Imagine my delight when I found all of Willeford's Hoke Mosley books on Audible, especially when they were free to borrow with Prime! Willeford's eminently readable writing speaks for itself; there are no "cop novel cliches" here. In my opinion, this writer is as good or better than Hemingway. It's a shame he's not more widely known; also regrettable is that Mr. Willeford passed away just as the Hoke Mosley character was taking off. The only thing I'd give less than Five Full Stars here is the narration, which isn't bad, only less than what it might have been in comparison to the story itself.

Sergeant Hoke Mosely Bk 4
This was another great Hoke Mosely story, sadly there will not be a book 5 as Charles Willeford passed away shortly after this book was released. IMO this was one of the best Hoke stories after Miami Blues...I have read several of Mr. Willeford's books and I think he was a great writer. I also think he does not get a lot of the respect he deserves as a writer and a veteran. Stephen Bowlby does a fine job of narrating all the Hoke Stories.

The way we die now
I love this author! This is the second book in this series that I have read, and it won't be the last.

Bitter sweet
I loved this book. The fourth in the Hoke Moseley series and it seems to me that Charles Willeford was just getting warmed up with Hoke. I would have loved to see how Hoke did in his new job (no spoilers). Sadly Willeford died soon after and we'll never know.

Super Hero Without Super Powers
This is a first experience with Charles Willeford and I enjoyed it very much. The story does nor fit between the lines nor do the characters. Definitely not predictable. The challenge appears to be between morality and legality, with judgement thrown in for a measure.

The edgiest one.
This one is a good mix of grit and character. Hoke is a rough and tumble guy, but he has some conservative points of view. Williford certainly used him to speak his mind how things are really perceived by the public. Nothings better than the 80s in Miami and it shines in this book. Great stuff.

Will appeal to whiny white men
I stuck it out longer than I should have. I gave him the benefit of the doubt but but the time he whined about affirmative action keeping him out of a promotion I realised there was no satire or tongue-in-cheek. Just another bitter author who believes white men can’t get a fair shake. Gross.

Last in series but best
Well I’ve gone through all 4 books in the series and to be honest I’m not a huge fan but I have to say that I liked this fourth book better than the rest. I think I’m just not crazy about the stories or the main character. I don’t think this writer is a bad writer because I’ve liked some of what he has written however I’ve seen another review where they compare him to Hemingway. I’m sorry but that’s a joke.
