The Letty Dobesh Chronicles books 1-3 (The Pain Of Others, Sunset Key, & Grab) Short stories that have apparently been optioned by the TNT network & is now a TV series. I'm not interested in watching it after reading the book. Crouch has commentary at the end of each story to explain why the screenplay was changed, etc, etc. Letty is an alcoholic crystal meth junkie who likes to steal things and pick pockets & sometimes gets custom jobs from a psychopath. The 1st story she's robbing a hotel room and the guests arrive so she has to hide and overhears a murder plot that she somehow must try and stop, all while jonesing for meth. The 2nd story she's sent on a job by the psychopath to steal a valuable paining from a man who's having his last night of freedom with her before he starts his prison sentence. The 3rd story she's on a quest to stay sober and goes to Las Vegas (really?) and helps out on a casino robbery.
