Just out last year. ".. a superb thriller, a brutal depiction of criminality and power, and an unflinching portrait of the dark heart of American racism." I thought it was older but I see there are several books that share the title.

The Ketchup tale sounds like a great read, too. I think we could all use a good laugh right now.
