A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur

Shamus Award Nominated Writer Michael Stone started his career as a newspaper reporter, working as a correspondent for The Dallas Morning News and winning awards for his investigative journalism, before becoming a private detective in Denver. He used that experience to powerful effect when he became a crime fiction novelist. Stone’s blockbuster series of thrillers began with The Low End of Nowhere, which introduced bounty hunter Streeter, the tough-guy-with-a-tender-heart tracking down terrifying criminals on the streets of Denver. The smashing debut earned Stone praise from Robert B. Parker and other crime fiction legends...and snagged him a coveted Shamus Award nomination for best novel from the Private Eye Writers of America. The book was quickly followed by A Long Reach, Token of Remorse, and Totally Dead, each a uniquely-authentic and explosive mystery packed with the author’s real-life experience. Stone’s series of crime noir fiction is both darkly-funny and deeply-gritty...and rates as some of the most original and cutting edge work in the mystery genre.

Présentation de l'éditeur

"Tough, authentic, and right on the money." - Robert B. Parker

A LONG REACH

The Denver Streets Belong to Streeter

Bounty hunter Streeter is a string of ex’s… ex-linebacker, ex-accountant, ex-bouncer, and a four-time ex-husband … who excels at exacting justice… with explosive results.

“One of the best…an entertaining series building on the traditions of the hard-boiled genre just enough to have a hell of a lot of fun with them,” Thrilling Detective
A psychotic felon is released from prison on a technicality and vows to kill everyone he blames for his imprisonment…saving his defense attorney, Streeter’s ex-fiance, for last, taunting her with each gruesome death. Streeter is in a race-against-time to hunt down the vicious killer -- but he can’t shake the feeling that his old lover is playing a deadly game of her own.

"Authentic action, in-depth characterization, and a nerve-wracking, cat-and-mouse plot make this a winner." – Library Journal
