I’ve recently become interested in George Pelecanos, who writes crime novels based in Washington, DC. I’m wondering if anyone here is a fan, and what book to start with. I think he has more than one series.

Just started in on Nero Wolfe. Was looking for something that would match up to my all time favorite - Le Carre. Stout doesn’t measure up on that score but they do provide interesting windows into life in the 30s a world that is now 80 years behind us.
