From the author of Come Closer and the Claire DeWitt series comes a highly acclaimed--and unusual--gritty thriller about a missing girl... and the addict tasked with saving her.

Josephine, a former addict, is offered a thousand dollars to find a suburban couple's missing daughter. But the search will take her into the dark underbelly of New York she thought she'd escaped--and a web of deceit that threatens to destroy her.

I've been obsessed with Sara Gran's work since reading DOPE years back. Her latest, THE BOOK OF THE MOST PRECIOUS SUBSTANCE, sounds smart, sharp, & very sexy. Out 2/8 from @Dreamland108! 2/? https://t.co/Uef1TvzPO6

@JeffSemonis I don't do favorites and 3 is an impossible task but you could do worse than Hell On Church St by Jake Hinkson, Sunset & Sawdust by Joe R Lansdale or Dope by Sara Gran Ask me again tomorrow and I'll have 3 different answers

Renaissance otaku. He/him. Handle is an RPG reference but if you want to imagine me playing football with Twitter trolls you can. @trollball@mstdn.social

Just read “Dope,” by Sara Gran. Holy [blank] this was a good book. What did I do today? Bought groceries, cooked dinner, and read this whole book. Highly recommended noir fiction with a junkie protagonist. https://t.co/qunZ7Niw2B
