The Killing Moon
by Chuck HoganWith a brilliantly plotted new crime novel set in small-town Massachusetts, Chuck Hogan, prizewinning author of Prince of Thieves, delivers a page-turning, knockout thriller that demonstrates why he is the unrivaled master of gritty suspense. The crack of a handgun shatters the silence of a warm summer night...A notorious local felon and former child magician vanishes, seemingly without a trace...A corrupt police force applies a stranglehold to a failing town...An ailing old man hatches a last-ditch plan to save the police department he once headed, and the community he still loves...An outsider arrives, bearing a simple recipe for death that could destroy them all... Buried deep in the rural backcountry of New England, the town of Black Falls isn't dying so much as quietly fading away. No supermarket. No traffic lights. No ATM. No hope. Donald Maddox, a man with no law enforcement background -- indeed, no background at all -- has returned to his hometown after fifteen years to find himself employed as an auxiliary patrolman on a local police force known to inspire more fear than trust in its citizenry. When a brutal murder shatters the isolation of this forgotten place, triggering the arrival of state police homicide detectives and a town-wide manhunt, both the local cops and Maddox appear to have something to hide. As the tightly wound mystery that is Maddox's past begins to unravel, he becomes ensnared in a deadly conspiracy that ultimately threatens his life, as well as the lives of those nearest him. From its opening pages until its haunting final image, The Killing Moon displays the author's trademark gift for soul-deep characterization, crisp pacing, and unflinching realism. This is Chuck Hogan's richest, most satisfying thriller yet.
The Killing Of Emma Gross
by Damien Seaman<p> Based on a true crime – the unsolved brutal murder of Düsseldorf prostitute Emma Gross – and the story of notorious serial killer Peter Kürten – the so-called “Vampire of Düsseldorf” – <em>The Killing of Emma Gross</em> is a gripping police thriller set during the dying days of Weimar Republic Germany.</p> <p> <strong>The story…</strong></p> <p> Detective Thomas Klein's career is going nowhere until he gets a tip-off leading to the Ripper's arrest.</p> <p> But the killer's confession to the hooker's murder is full of holes, and Klein soon comes to believe this is one murder the killer didn't commit.</p> <p> Motivated by spite, ambition, or maybe even a long-buried sense of justice, finding out who really killed Emma Gross becomes Klein's obsession.</p> <p> Particularly when the evidence begins to point closer to home…</p> <p> Part historical police procedural, part true crime thriller, <em>The Killing of Emma Gross</em> will particularly appeal to fans of Philip Kerr (the Bernie Gunther novels) and Andrea Maria Schenkel (<em>The Murder Farm</em>). Fans of i, James Ellroy’s <em>LA Quartet</em> and Christopher Isherwood’s Berlin novels are also in for a treat.

It's brilliant: tough, unsentimental, humane and intelligent, and Seaman wears his considerable learning lightly."<br /> – Ruth Dudley Edwards, author of <em>Murdering Americans</em></p> <p> "A page-turner that gripped me from start to finish."<br /> – William Ryan, author of <em>The Holy Thief</em></p> <p> "... a magnificently dark crime novel with an unusual setting, full of energy and immediacy."<br /> – Quentin Bates, author of the Detective Gunnhildur series of Icelandic police procedurals.</p> <p> "Damien Seaman has written one of the best first novels I've read. An immediate classic."<br /> – Tony Black, author of <em>The Storm Without</em></p> <p> ""I loved everything... Damien Seaman’s clean, uncluttered style, the simultaneously vivid and subtle journey through 1929 Düsseldorf, and the fact that it was based on real events. This is as good as it gets."<br /> – Helen FitzGerald, author of <em>The Donor</em></p> <p> <strong>From the author…</strong></p> <p> “<em>The Killing of Emma Gross</em>, based on true events, tells the story of a police detective who gets dragged into a high-profile serial-killer case and ends up shunning the limelight to solve the neglected murder of a prostitute instead.</p> <p> "Set against the backdrop of a country teetering into madness, the novel explores how the meanest motivations can still lead to noble acts, while the noblest intentions can lead to disaster.</p> <p> "It also features a detailed and accurate timeline of real events for true crime buffs with an interest in the Kürten case.”</p> <p> <strong>About the author…</strong></p> <p> A former journalist, editor, parliamentary assistant, financial analyst, factory worker and security guard, Damien has dabbled in petty smuggling, baboon-whispering, scuba diving and sunbathing, with varying levels of success.</p> <p> He has lived in Belgium, Germany and Libya, spent probably more time than was healthy visiting Kuwait, and currently resides in the county of Shakespeare’s birth.</p> <p> He also has a fear of camels, but he doesn’t like to talk about it.</p>
