The Sentry, by Robert Crais:
If Joe Pike doesn’t stop for air in his tires, he won’t interrupt a burglary, he won’t fall in love, and he won’t face a psychotic assassin in the canyons above Los Angeles in noir series novel THE SENTRY. He won’t get involved in an old robbery-murder case or with current LA headbangers or in an abduction case where neither cops nor robbers are who they seem to be. He won’t see the bodies piling up, and Elvis Cole, his best friend and private detective partner, won’t have to kill someone to save Pike’s life. But… Pike stops for air.
