Just a FYI: I paid zero $ for Street Music and I am madly in love with the writing of J.A. Konrath.This short story follows Phineas Trout. Phin is character from the Jack Daniels series that is dying from pancreatic cancer and his morality has seriously slipped.  Phin takes on the job of killing a hooker who stole from her boss. He needs the cash to pay for coke to ease his pain.  Phin doesn't play nice trying to find the hooker and there is some fine double crossing involved.  Phin encounters characters who "... went through life without ever realizing how precious life was".  He should know and demonstrates that thought as he fondly describes his "street music".Jack Daniels makes a brief appearance. (YAY!)
