All Is Not Forgiven (2023)
Joe Kenda
"All Is Not Forgiven hums with brutal authenticity--Kenda the author and Kenda the character both deliver big procedural thrills that will keep readers guessing. I don't remember a debut novel this assured--Kenda is the real deal."
Desert Getaway (2022)
(Dante & Jazz Mystery, book 1)
Michael Craft
"A wild romp through Palm Springs' glittery underbelly. Fast, funny, and thoroughly enjoyable. An instant classic."
Under Color of Law (2021)
(Trevor Finnegan, book 1)
Aaron Philip Clark
"Not since Joseph Wambaugh’s New Centurions has a book about the LAPD arrived with the power, strength, and timeliness of Under Color of Law. This is a thriller, all right, but it’s also the portrait of a city and its institutions crumbling from within. A dynamic and important work and, still, a hell of a mystery."
Folk Songs for Trauma Surgeons (2021)
Keith Rosson
"Each story in Folk Songs for Trauma Surgeons is a bullet. Fast. Weird. Funny. Horrifying. This is a collection of unique grace and pleasure amongst all the oddities and twists. A major accomplishment."
Last Dance (2020)
(Sam Carver, book 2)
Jeffrey Fleishman
"Last Dance is a perfect mystery novel...Fleishman's Los Angeles is dark, brutal, and somehow still filled with moments of profound beauty...You'll be taken away. And If something bad happens to me, I want Sam Carver on the case."
