Credit hedge fund interview

I have an interview with a credit fund in the northeast coming up in a couple weeks. They are more high yield/ leverage loan focused rather than distressed. What book should I read to get familiar with the intricacies of this sort of stuff? My background is more focused on direct debt investing. Have seen on here that everyone recommends Moyer's distressed book but wasn't sure if it really applies to this role. Thanks.
