Richard Price meets Scott Smith s "A Simple Plan" in this soulful, riveting work of suspense by an author whose work has been praised by Salman Rushdie as pure, muscular storytelling . . . irresistible. Douglas Deesh Sharp has survived in the Bronx on the right side of the law in spite of the constant lure of drug-dealing friends, paying rent by hauling junk for cash. Then comes the morning Deesh and two pals head upstate for a seemingly standard hauling job, and a woman pays them $1,000 to dispose of a sealed oil drum whose contents smell and weigh enough to contain a human corpse. Suspicious, yet ground down by underemployment, Deesh agrees to follow through on the job, only to realize he is now possibly mixed up in a serious crime. Panicked, he and his friends dump the drum on the side of a rural highway and make quick plans to start new lives someplace far away. But escaping their pasts isn t so simple. As things spiral drastically out of control, Deesh finds himself running for his life the prime suspect in the murders of three white men. Jan Price, a young jockey who left difficulties of her own back home in Arkansas, holds promise as a rising star at a small racetrack in upstate New York, where her father was a local legend before his untimely death two decades earlier. As she spends time at the track, struggling to piece together her father s mysterious past, Jan is increasingly charmed by wannabe horse farmer Tug and gets pulled into the gritty underworld of gambling and racing. When Tug s father goes missing, Jan and Tug are convinced it wasn t an accident. But when they finally solve the mystery behind his disappearance and seemingly happen upon luck at the track Tug vanishes, too. Interweaving Deesh s and Jan s gripping narratives, "Watch Me Go" is at once a compulsively readable work of suspense and a moving story about family and redemption."
