Richard Price recommends

Fever House (2023)
(Fever House Duology, book 1)
Keith Rosson
"Fever House is an extraordinary novel, a wild but seamless hybrid of hoodlum noir, government agency skullduggery, punk nostalgia, and the apocalypse foretold. Keith Rosson is a master."
thumb
Just Thieves (2021)
Gregory Galloway
"A sucker punch noir that is also a powerful and haunting allegory of work, debt, and power."
thumb
Proving Ground (2017)
(Lourdes Robles, book 1)
Peter Blauner
"Over the last 25 years Peter Blauner has proven to be a master of the urban darkside, his crime novels suffused with a knowing compassion for the bottom dogs who live in the Minotaur's maze that is New York City. Proving Ground is one of his finest efforts."
