The Things We Do
(2017)(Deranged)
(The first book in the Morris Brick series)A novel by Dave Zeltserman
‘A fascinating and exciting blend of misdirection, topsy-turvy, and violence.’ —Reed Farrel Coleman
An ex-Los Angeles homicide cop turned PI is on the trail of a murderous psychopath terrorizing L.A. in the first of the Morris Brick crime thriller series.
Five years earlier the Skull Cracker Killer terrorized New York City, taking twelve victims in a manner even more horrific manner than his nickname suggests, and was never caught. Now he’s back, making Los Angeles his new killing ground. Former LAPD homicide detective Morris Brick is consulting on a serial-killer film, where a desperate mayor pleads with Brick to take on the case. The only way he can stop these perverse murders is to learn the madman’s mind-bending secret—before the killer strikes again, this time much too close to home...
‘A dark and different serial killer novel that will haunt the reader long after the book is closed.’ —John Lutz
‘Los Angeles has seldom seen such grisly fun. It’s James Ellroy meets Alfred Hitchcock on the psychotic side of the street.’ —Paul Levine
‘One of the most compelling, thrilling, and truth be told, at times look-away-from-page-frightening serial killer novels I've read in a long, long time.’ —Vincent Zandri
