Chicago Strip Clubs: Answers and Questions: Marcus Sakey

In keeping with the big-hair theme, writer of thrillers Marcus Sakey (and a member of Chicago crime-writing collective the Outfit ) reports that his curly mop is often a topic of discussion at readings:
I’m frequently asked if I’ve seen Starsky & Hutch. (It’s my afro.)
