Book Description
It sometimes seems like a good idea to put a match to the problem you'd most like to be without. When it's a slum full of blacks who don't pay the rent, and your buildings are all insured, then it's the best idea of all. But if you pay Jimmy and Leo to do it for you, you may find you've got another problem. One of the best loved titles from this American master of literary low life.

Book Description
A riveting, blistering hot novel about the shady side of the law and the business side of the Boston underworld by the one and only George V. Higgins. Jerry Fein is a small-time lawyer, occasional booking agent, and full-time slumlord. But he’s nobody’s fool. So when the tenants of his dilapidated buildings refuse to pay rent because of rats, Jerry knows just the man to help him—Leo Proctor, a professional arsonist, who can make a fire marshal look the other way for a little cash. But the heat is on over at the police station as well, and a couple of cops are suddenly feeling pressure from their superiors to produce, and something has got to give. Full of hardnosed cops and lawyers a little too familiar with both sides of the law, The Rat on Fire is another Higgins masterpiece and an unflinching portrait of the Boston crime world.
