I haven't read THIEVES LIKE US yet so I can't compare the two
but I have read HUNGRY MEN which I think would have to be the
title you're referring to. It's not a crime novel, IIRC, but
rather about scuffling & unemployed jazz musicians
(white, IIRC) trying to get by during the Depression. Not
exactly HB, more social realist, I think. Well worth the
reading just don't be expecting action & thrills.
