Detective Gabe Wager and his rookie partner spend their nights trailing dealers, making buys, and acquiring informants. After months picking up scraps, a stray piece of information is about to put Wager on to the biggest bust of his career. A letter from the Seattle DEA puts him on the hunt for nearly a thousand pounds of smuggled marijuana. The case could make Wager's career--if the smugglers don't kill him first.

From the Author:
The Alvarez Journal was awarded the Best First Novel "Edgar" for 1976.
From the Inside Flap:
The case wasn't going to be an easy one, Wager realized pretty quickly. Alvarez was a professional--and slippery, and Wager was working with a new partner, Detective Denby, and he wasn't finding that very easy either.
