Stumptown Volume 1, by Greg Rucka

Watch out, Portland! There’s crime and mystery afoot and Greg Rucka does an excellent job showing the gritty side of a seemingly sleepy little town through beautiful illustrations and the point of view of a compelling main character, Dex.  The strong, female detective takes us along on her journey to get to the bottom of suspicious activities in this book.  The element of the story that was less compelling was that of her gambling problem, but it did provide the reason she would take such a risky investigation on: To clear her debt.
