Publisher's summary

The night world of Old Town, Portland, Oregon, has gone mad in the grip of gentrification, and at the center of it all is Lucky Supreme, a seedy tattoo parlor, whose proprietor is a street-bred artist with a unique approach to problem solving. Darby Holland has enough on his radar, but when some flash (tattoo artwork) stolen from him resurfaces in California, he can't help himself. His efforts to reclaim it set him on a dangerous path, dragging along his delightfully eccentric colleagues, including the brains behind his brawn, Delia, a twiggy, vinyl-clad punk genius secretly from the other side of the tracks.

No one knows why the art signed "Roland Norton, Panama, 1955" is worth anything or how it came to hang on the walls of a tattoo shop in Portland. Only the deranged former owner can say - and he's not talking. Before the wrecking balls swing through Old Town in the name of "progress", Darby must settle old scores and face new demons to save his reputation, his shop, and his sanity. When cash, lies, crime, and history collide, Darby will need his ramshackle skill set, his wits, and a lot of luck to rise to the top of a human food chain, or be eaten alive.

Lucky Supreme is an intuitive thrill ride from start to finish in the spirit of Elmore Leonard and Dennis Lehane. It is the first of a trilogy featuring Darby Holland, Delia, and the other unforgettable nocturnal residents of Old Town.

Crime Tattoo Noir- Unbelievable!

I was so amazed with this book. Jeff Johnson combines old noir with a taste of the seedy underbelly of Portland Oregon. The descriptions… The characters… And his set up for the 12 o’clock noon showdown was spectacular. I was on the proverbial edge of my seat through the entirety of the book.
