Chuck Hogan, DEVILS IN EXILE
Simon & Schuster, $26.00 (signed first edition)
 Chuck Hogan breaks new ground with each book; DEVILS IN EXILE is what a Stephen Hunter thriller might look like, if written by Richard Price. Neil Maven is a Special Forces veteran of the Iraq War who has no ideas how his skills might apply in the real world. The mysterious Brad Royce gives him not only a job but a mission, enlisting him as part of a group that robs drug dealers of their cash and destroys their product. It's a modern–day Robin Hood operation that seems too good to be true, and is. This terrific, old–school revenge novel could be the basis for a new series.
