In this beautifully written and darkly humorous book, Harold Adams tells the story of his life as a criminal artist, chronicling his crimes and the people and places he has hurt along the way. From making fake IDs to forging paintings, Harold has always been a creative and opportunistic thief. When he is released from prison after serving a lengthy sentence, he is determined to reinvent himself and start fresh. But nothing is quite as it seems in the world of the criminal artist, and Harold soon realizes that the art of crime is as much a lifestyle as it is a trade. With his sharp wit and wicked sense of humor, Harold tells his story in a dazzling, idiosyncratic style that is both funny and moving.; A Carl Wilcox Mystery; 8vo; Signed by Author.
