KEN BRUEN
https://kenbruenauthor.com/
The Ghosts of Galway (Grove Atlantic, November 17, 2017)
From Ireland’s most lyrical crime fiction writer, the latest
installment in this addictive series pits “perpetually falling Irish
angel Jack Taylor” (Mystery Scene) against a dangerous band of
heretics.
Ken Bruen is a singular voice in crime fiction “with his ear for lilting
Irish prose and his taste for the kind of gallows humor heard only at the
foot of the gallows” (New York Times Book Review). In The Ghosts of
Galway, he brings those elegiac talents to bear on a case involving a
famously blasphemous red book and Bruen’s equally profane antihero
Jack Taylor.
As well-versed in politics, pop culture, and crime fiction as he is ill-fated in life, Jack Taylor is
recovering from a mistaken medical diagnosis and a failed suicide attempt. In need of money,
and with former cop on his resume, Jack has been hired as a night-shift security guard. But his
Ukrainian boss has Jack in mind for a bit of off-the-books work. He wants Jack to find what
some claim to be the first true book of heresy, The Red Book, currently in the possession of a
rogue priest who is hiding out in Galway after fleeing a position at the Vatican. Despite Jack’s
distaste for priests of any stripe, the money is too good to turn down. Em, the many-faced
woman who has had a vise on Jack’s heart and mind for the past two years, reappears and turns
out to be entangled with the story of The Red Book, too, leading Jack down ever more mysterious
and lethal pathways.
It seems all sides are angling for a piece of Jack Taylor, but as The Ghosts of Galway twists
toward a violent end, he is increasingly plagued by ghosts—by the disposable and disposed of in
a city filled with as much darkness as the deepest corners of Jack’s own mind.
KIRKUS STARRED REVIEW
The Ghosts of Galway: A Jack Taylor Novel
Jack Taylor, Bruen’s perennially tortured protagonist, suffers new levels of angst in his 13th noir
outing (after 2016’s The Emerald Lie). Recovering from a failed suicide attempt after a mistaken
diagnosis of terminal cancer, Taylor is trying to live the quiet life in Galway, working as a
security guard and looking after his dog, Storm. Trouble, however, has a way of finding him.
When his boss offers him a job searching for The Red Book, a lost heretical text apparently in the
possession of an ex-priest hiding in Ireland, Taylor initially scoffs at the “Dan Brown lite”
scheme, but he needs the money and ultimately accepts. Meanwhile, a series of slain animals are
found in Galway’s Eyre Square accompanied by cryptic notes left by an ultra–right-wing group
that aims to return to an earlier era of conservative religion. When Emily, the chameleonlike
sociopath who’s flitted in and out of Jack’s life, turns out to be mixed up in the plot, things get
really nasty. Bruen is in top form, and, although everything Taylor touches seems to turn to ash,
he embodies such humanity that readers will be unable to resist rooting for him.

PRAISE FOR KEN BRUEN AND THE JACK TAYLOR SERIES
“The most entertaining of Bruen’s Jack Taylor books . . . [A] fresh reading pleasure.”—Toronto
Star (Canada)
"Bruen remains on the mountaintop of contemporary Irish noir. Sprightly, elliptical prose is a
plus." -- Publisher’s Weekly
PW “Taylor is a classic figure: an ex-cop turned seedy private eye . . . The book’s pleasure
comes from listening to Taylor’s eloquent rants, studded with references to songs and books. His
voice is wry and bittersweet, but somehow always hopeful.”—Seattle Times, on Green Hell
“One of the most sublime pleasures in crime fiction is reading a new book by Ken Bruen . . .
This is real writing, the likes of which we are blessed to behold.”—Strand Magazine, on
Purgatory
“Ken Bruen doesn’t need a lot of words to tell his tales of perpetually falling Irish angel Jack
Taylor—he knows the right ones. Bruen gets more done in a paragraph, a word, even a fragment
of a word, than most writers get in an entire four-hundred-page doorstop. If his prose was any
sharper, your eyeballs would bleed.”—Mystery Scene, on Green Hell
“The things Jack witnesses these days . . . would cause a saint to go blind. And Jack, whose
heroism is fueled by ‘plain old-fashioned rage, bile and bitterness,’ is no saint. Never was, never
will be. Amen.”—New York Times Book Review, on Purgatory
“Ken Bruen . . . writes in machine gun fashion, his words verbal bullets that rip through the
veneer of the safe bourgeois Catholic society in which he was reared . . . The acerbic wit and off-
the-wall comments throughout all the books are somewhat reminiscent of the work of Raymond
Chandler and Peter Cheyenne.”—Irish Independent, on Green Hell
ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Ken Bruen received a doctorate in metaphysics, taught English in
South Africa, and then became a crime novelist. The critically
acclaimed author of eleven previous Jack Taylor novels and The
White Trilogy, he is the recipient of two Barry Awards and two
Shamus Awards and has twice been a finalist for the Edgar Award.
He lives in Galway, Ireland.

ALAFAIR BURKE
www.alafairburke.com
The Wife (Alafair Burke, HarperCollins, Hardcover release:
January 23, 2018)
His Scandal, Her Secret
From New York Times bestselling author Alafair Burke, a stunning
domestic thriller in the vein of Behind Closed Doors and The
Woman in Cabin 10—in which a woman must make the
impossible choice between defending her husband and saving
herself.
When Angela met Jason Powell while catering a dinner party in
East Hampton, she assumed their romance would be a short-lived
fling, like so many relationships between locals and summer
visitors. To her surprise, Jason, a brilliant economics professor at
NYU, had other plans, and they married the following summer.
For Angela, the marriage turned out to be a chance to reboot her
life. She and her son were finally able to move out of her mother’s home to Manhattan, where no
one knew about her tragic past.
Six years later, thanks to a bestselling book and a growing media career, Jason has become a
cultural lightning rod, placing Angela near the spotlight she worked so carefully to avoid. When
a college intern makes an accusation against Jason, and another woman, Kerry Lynch, comes
forward with an even more troubling allegation, their perfect life begins to unravel. Jason insists
he is innocent, and Angela believes him. But when Kerry disappears, Angela is forced to take a
closer look at the man she married. And when she is asked to defend Jason in court, she realizes
that her loyalty to her husband could unearth old secrets.
This much-anticipated follow-up to Burke’s Edgar-nominated The Ex asks how far a wife will go
to protect the man she loves: Will she stand by his side, even if he drags her down with him?
“[A] roller-coaster of a domestic thriller.”
—Publishers Weekly

JAMES LEE BURKE
www.jamesleeburke.com
Robicheaux (Simon & Schuster, January 2018):
Fiction. New York Times bestseller James Lee Burke
returns with his latest masterpiece, and returns to
reader-favorite character, Dave Robicheaux.
James Lee Burke’s most beloved character, Dave
Robicheaux, returns in this gritty, atmospheric mystery
set in the towns and backwoods of Louisiana.
Dave Robicheaux is a haunted man. From the acts he
committed in Vietnam, to his battles with alcoholism,
to the sudden loss of his beloved wife, Molly, his
thoughts drift from one irreconcilable memory to the
next. Images of ghosts pepper his reality. Robicheaux’s
only beacon remains serving as a detective in New
Iberia, Louisiana.
It’s in that capacity that Robicheaux crosses paths with
powerful mob boss, Tony Nemo. Tony has a Civil War
sword he’d like to give to Levon Broussard, a popular
local author whose books have been adapted into major
Hollywood films. The sword’s history can be traced back to Broussard’s ancestors, and Tony
figures it belongs to Levon. But Tony’s intentions aren’t so pure; he believes the gift will lead to
a slice of Broussard’s lucrative film adaptations. Then there’s Jimmy Nightengale, the young
poster boy of New Orleans wealth and glamour. Jimmy’s fond of Levon’s work, and even fonder
of his beautiful, enigmatic wife, Rowena. Tony thinks Jimmy can be a US Senator someday, and
has the resources and clout to make it happen. There’s something off about the relationship
between these three men, and after a vicious assault, it’s up to Robicheaux to uncover the truth.
Complicating matters is the sudden death of T.J. Dartez, the New Iberian local responsible for
Molly’s death. Robicheaux’s colleague, Spade Labiche, thinks Robicheaux had something to do
with it. Robicheaux’s determined to clear his name. He’s not alone; his daughter, Alafair, along
with his old friend, Clete Purcel are right by Robicheaux’s side as he searches for the killer,
where a shocking discovery awaits.

The Jealous Kind (Simon & Schuster August 30, 2016)
From New York Times bestselling author James Lee Burke—
an atmospheric, coming-of-age story set in 1952 Texas, as the
Korea War rages.
On its surface, life in Houston is as you would expect: drive-in
restaurants, souped-up cars, jukeboxes, and teenagers discovering
their sexuality. But beneath the glitz and superficial normalcy, a
class war has begun, and it is nothing like the conventional
portrayal of the decade. Against this backdrop Aaron Holland
Broussard discovers the poignancy of first love and a world of
violence he did not know existed.
When Aaron spots the beautiful and gifted Valerie Epstein
fighting with her boyfriend, Grady Harrelson, at a Galveston
drive-in, he inadvertently challenges the power of the Mob and
one of the richest families in Texas. He also discovers he must
find the courage his father had found as an American soldier in
the Great War.
Written in evocative prose, The Jealous Kind may prove to be James Lee Burke’s most
encompassing work yet. As Aaron undergoes his harrowing evolution from boy to man, we can’t
help but recall the inspirational and curative power of first love and how far we would go to
protect it.
PRAISE FOR THE JEALOUS KIND:
“As always, though, what brings the myth-laden story to pulsing life is Burke’s lyrical prose and
his ability to use description to mirror emotion. That and what is perhaps the best last paragraph
in this author’s landmark career.”—Booklist, Starred Review
“Burke has a hit with this dark, atmospheric story.”—Publishers Weekly
“Burke's gritty coming-of-age tale is a typically entertaining read that may cap a trilogy but also
begs for a sequel.”—Kirkus Reviews

MILES CORWIN

LA Nocturne (Calmann-Levy/FRANCE, January 2017)
Los Angeles, 1946. Jake Silver, back from the war with a Silver
Star, is a rookie LAPD cop walking a beat in East. L.A. when the
elite Central Homicide unit brings him downtown on temporary
assignment to help solve a high-profile double-murder. Creighton
Cavanaugh, a reporter for The Globe, and Herb “Big Ike”
Isaacson, one of gangster Mickey Cohen’s henchman, are found
shot to death in Cavanaugh’s apartment, violating an unwritten
law in 1940s Los Angeles: Never kill a cop or a newspaperman.
Jake is recruited because he has a personal connection to Cohen,
who has refused to talk with detectives. The Central Homicide
captain believes Silver can convince Cohen to cooperate.
Silver escaped Nazi Germany in the 1930s, the only member of
his family able to obtain an exit visa. He has been tormented about the fate of his parents and
brother and hopes this new assignment will afford him the opportunity to finally get some
answers.
As Silver investigates the double murder, he penetrates a noirish world populated by crooked
politicians, dirty cops, greedy developers, and well-connected racketeers, a place where everyone
and everything is for sale. While Silver is immersed in the homicide investigation, he’s also
using his detective badge to get answers about his family, delving into the murky realm of
refugee politics and Nazi cover-ups.
"Miles Corwin beautifully transports us back in time to the Los Angeles of the 1940's and brings
to life unique, intriguing characters, while also managing to tell the truth about a dark history of
the city whose reverberations continue to be felt today." -- Marcia Clark, author of BLOOD
DEFENSE, and former prosecutor in the OJ Simpson case
ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

where he wrote about the LAPD, homicide in South-Central Los

The Brain Defense (Penguin Press, February 2017)
Blending in-depth research and reporting with dramatic storytelling,
this investigation of the role of neuroscience in the criminal justice
system uses a landmark murder case to explore the implications of
brain science in the determination of culpability and punishment.
Thought-provoking and brilliantly crafted, The Brain Defense marries
a murder mystery complete with colorful characters and courtroom
drama with a sophisticated discussion of how our legal system has
changed—and must continue to change—as we broaden our
understanding of the human mind.
KEY SELLING POINTS:
• TRUE CRIME DOMINATING POPULAR CULTURE: Between HBO’S The Jinx,
Netflix’s Making a Murderer, and Season One of the Serial podcast, true crime
narratives—particularly murder mysteries—are in vogue as riveting and sophisticated
entertainment.
• IN-DEPTH LOOK AT LANDMARK CASE: The Brain Defense unpacks one
provocative murder case over the course of the book, revealing the twists and turns of the
investigation, legal hearings, and fallout.
• TAPS INTO CRIMINAL JUSTICE REFORM DEBATE: Led by activists (and
bestselling authors) like Bryan Stevenson and Michelle Alexander, a movement to
reverse the trend of mass incarceration in our country is gaining steam. The Brain
Defense argues for the sympathetic treatment of those whose crimes can be attributed to
abuse or poverty experienced earlier in life.

The Man Upon the Stair (Pegasus, February 2018)
Chief Inspector Achille Lefebvre returns from a much-needed
vacation to find that there are assassins on his tail, and, as if
that weren’t enough, one of France’s wealthiest men has gone
missing without a trace…
Paris: September, 1890. Newly promoted Chief Inspector
Achille Lefebvre attends the execution of the anarchist
assassin, Moreau. Following the execution, outgoing Chief
Féraud warns his protégé: "I've heard that some of Moreau's
cronies have sworn revenge."
Achille takes the warning in stride, but agrees precautions are
warranted. “You don't want to get killed your first week as
chief.”
Achille barely has time to get accustomed to his new office when a baffling case crosses his
desk. Baron de Livet, one of France’s wealthiest men, has gone missing while vacationing at the
resort in Aix-Les-Bains. The case is complicated by the fact that Achille and his wife are
acquainted with the baron, and the missing millionaire’s wife has come directly to Achille to
enlist his aid in finding her husband.
What begins as a routine investigation soon runs into complications, including a poisoned
servant, a fortune in missing banknotes, and Russian spies. And Achille mustn’t forget those
stalking anarchists who are out for his blood as he searches for the man who wasn’t there…
The Hanged Man (Pegasus, August 2016)
Like many fin de siècle Parisians, Inspector Achille Lefebvre is
looking forward to a pleasant summer holiday at a seaside resort
with his wife, Adele—but a body found hanging from a bridge in a
public park interferes with the inspector's plans.
Paris: July 1890. Inspector Achille Lefebvre and his wife Adele are
enjoying their stay at a seaside resort—until a body found hanging
from a bridge in a public park demands the Inspector's attention.
Is it suicide or murder? A twisted trail of evidence draws Inspector
Lefebvre into a shadowy underworld of international intrigue,
espionage, and terrorism. Time is of the essence; pressure mounts
on the Sureté to get results. Achille's chief orders him to work with
his former partner, Inspector Rousseau, now in charge of a special
unit in the newly formed political brigade. But can Achille trust theForeign Rights Guide / Spitzer Agency / 2018 Page 13
detective who let him down in another case?
Inspector Lefebvre uses innovative forensics and a network of police spies to uncover a secret
alliance, a scheme involving the sale of a cutting-edge high explosive, and an assassination plot
that threatens to ignite a world war.
REVIEWS FOR THE HANGED MAN:
Inspector Achille Lefebvre, the chain-smoking, chess-playing hero of Gary Inbinder’s
wonderfully atmospheric period policiere, The Hanged Man is, in 1890, fast becoming the most
famous detective in Paris. “[W]hen you crack the case,” his chief tells Lefebvre, “it brings credit
to the brigade, and along with that credit come the appropriations we need . . .” And that’s why,
the boss explains, “you get the cases no one else wants.”
For instance, his latest: the corpse of a man found dangling from the railing of a historic bridge.
The dead man carries no identification, but pinned to his jacket is a note in Russian giving a
Bible verse referring to Judas. “It could be suicide, homicide, even a macabre prank,” muses the
inspector. “Mon Dieu, what a case.”
A case every bit as baffling as the hero’s debut. Here’s hoping for another entry in this
atmospheric series. – Kirkus
“Inbinder weaves a wonderful tale and his plotting and pacing are right on the money.
Indications are that this is the first in a series, I certainly hope so as I would love to read more
adventures with Inspector Lefebvre.”—Crimespree Magazine
“Inbinder's mystery debut shows Montmartre at its atmospheric best—inhabited by characters as
diverse and devious as Paris can offer.”—Kirkus Reviews
“Fin-de-siècle Paris comes brilliantly alive in The Devil in Montmartre. Gary Inbinder lays a plot
as fascinating as the midnight streets of the Parisian Right Bank.”—Michael Wiley, Shamus
Award-winning author of A Bad Night’s Sleep
“Inbinder creates a whodunit that combines a killer plot with skillful characterization. Add
Inbinder’s revelatory prose, and the reader comes away emotionally exhausted but exhilarated by
the author’s first venture in the genre.”—The Richmond Times Dispatch

Holmes Entangled: The Final Endeavor of Sherlock
Holmes (Seventh Street Books, March 6 2018)
A retired Sherlock Holmes, now in his seventies and
disguised as a Cambridge professor, is dramatically
disturbed one day when a modestly successful author in
his late-sixties named Arthur Conan Doyle comes to
call. This Conan Doyle, notable only for his historical
romances, science fiction, and a three-volume history of
the Boer War (but no detective tales), knows somehow
of the false professor’s true identity. To Holmes’s
surprise, he asks for help in solving a case that strains
the limits of credulity by suggesting the existence of
parallel worlds.
Sherlock Holmes on one last adventure in 1920s’
London…employed by the author Arthur Conan Doyle?
We might ask ourselves how such a thing can be
possible.
This tale is discovered in a long-forgotten manuscript in 1940s’ Buenos Aires. The librarian who
finds it employs an Argentinian P.I. to help him grasp the deepest implications of the text. The
story of the two Argentinians’ brief and ultimately violent encounter provides a hardboiled frame
to the last endeavor of Sherlock Holmes.
Key Selling Points:
• Trade Paperback Original
• McAlpine’s Woman With a Blue Pencil is a 2016 Edgar Award Nominee for Best
paperback Original
• McAlpine has become known for a signature ‘meta-mystery’ style
Praise for Holmes Entangled
“[A] crafted tale of mysterious encounters, elaborate disguises, spiritualism, séances, quantum
mechanics, the tiniest hint of a love story, and parallel universes. From allusions to Edgar Allen
Poe, Shakespeare, Mark Twain, and an encounter with Ernest Hemingway, McAlpine weaves a
compact tale of mystery, betrayal, disappointment, and the figurative and literal reach of big
brother. The result is a story both dilettante and devotee can enjoy.”
-San Antonio Express-NewsForeign Rights Guide / Spitzer Agency / 2018 Page 15
“McAlpine’s new meta-detective novel looks to be the most post-modern take on Sherlock
Holmes since Chabon’s The Final Solution. McAlpine’s work is perfect for those who enjoyed
the Will Ferrell film Stranger Than Fiction, but wished it wasn’t a comedy.”
-LitHub in its list of “Most Anticipated Crime, Mystery, and Thriller titles of 2018”
“It’s to author McAlpine’s credit that he makes what might have been an arch exercise into a joy
to read…. It’s a fascinating read, smart and entertaining for all that it’s based on those quantum
mechanics. That’s right, it’s Holmes confronting alternate universes, and it’s wonderful.”
-Booklist
“[W]ill appeal to adventurous Holmes fans who enjoy more modern takes on a literary icon, such
as James Lovegrove’s Sherlock Holmes and the Shadwell Shadows.”-Library Journal
“Readers curious about an elderly Sherlock Holmes who was never a Victorian gentleman may
enjoy this offbeat pastiche…”
-Publishers Weekly
“It’s hard to create a thrilling narrative using an over-used character like Sherlock
Holmes…unless you are Gordon McAlpine. The brilliance of the work done by McAlpine in this
novel is that he has constructed a conventional mystery and yet has also included interesting
elements from science and other genres…. Traditional mystery needs more authors like Gordon
McAlpine: Authors who can take enduring characters and narratives, polish them and give them
a new beautiful face. This is a highly recommended title.”
-Mystery Tribune
“Holmes Entangled is Gordon McAlpine at his best – a mind-bending feast of mystery and
metafiction featuring one of literature’s most endearing and enduring characters. Highly
recommended!”
-Internet Review of Books
“Unique, explosive, meta-physical and just plain awesome. Holmes like you’ve never imagined
before. This will turn everyone’s mind inside out.”
-Nikbooklovers’s Blog
“I love this take on Holmes and on the nature of fiction and authorship. Holmes Entangled is a
great book for readers who like to think of characters as having a real life of their own.”
-A Bookish TypeForeign Rights Guide / Spitzer Agency / 2018 Page 16
Woman with a Blue Pencil (Seventh Street Books, November
2015) Nominated for an Edgar Award
What becomes of a character cut from a writer’s working
manuscript? A merely metaphysical question for a critic or
scholar -- but far more than that for the character himself! At
the heart of Gordon McAlpine’s novel, Woman with a Blue
Pencil is Sam Sumida, a first-generation, Japanese-American
academic who’s been thrust into the role of amateur P.I when
the L.A.P.D. largely ignores the investigation of his young
wife’s murder. On the eve of the attack at Pearl Harbor, grief
stricken by his wife’s loss and disoriented by his ill-prepared
change of occupation, the worst is yet to come.
Woman with a Blue Pencil is a powerful and fiercely
imaginative mash-up of Raymond Chandler with Sax Rhomer,
as orchestrated by Jorge Luis Borges. The novel is rich with high wire, literary gamesmanship
that addresses not only the fanciful question of what might become of characters that are edited
out of a narrative but also the attendant question of how the “editing” of our own identities
shapes us all. Additionally, Woman With a Blue Pencil indicts the continually shifting sands of
bigotry and hatred, a topic as much for our own times as for the historical period of the novel, all
while providing the page-turning pleasures of an intriguing murder mystery and a femme fatale
unlike any you’ve met before.
Praise for Woman With a Blue Pencil
“McAlpine’s creative talent is rare and this novel is an exceptional literary treat.”
- Shelf Awareness STARRED review
“A masterpiece of metafiction….I don’t know the last time I read a book that made me think that
much AND had that good of an ending.”
- MysteryPeople PICK OF THE MONTH
“A masterly critique of the mystery novel…McAlpine’s greatest accomplishment is that the book
works both as a conventional mystery story and as a deconstruction of the genre’s ideology:
whichever strand readers latch on to, the parallel stories pack a brutal punch.”
- Publishers Weekly BOXED, STARRED review
“Woman with a Blue Pencil is a brilliantly structured labyrinth of a novel—something of an
enigma wrapped in a mystery, postmodernist in its experimental bravado and yet satisfyingly
well-grounded in the Los Angeles of its World War II era. Gordon McAlpine has imagined a
totally unique work of ’mystery’ fiction—one that Kafka, Borges, and Nabokov, as well as
Dashiell Hammett, would have appreciated.”

Jordan is a country musician living in the shadow of his
father, legendary bluegrass musician Walker Bayne. A
lifetime of poor decisions has led him on an endless tour of
San Antonio dive bars, where between sets he resumes
accruing women and drinking himself to the brink of
disaster.
Returning home to the Ozarks for the wedding of his twin
brother, Jordan uncovers a dark vein in the Bayne family
history: going back to the end of the Civil War, every
generation of Bayne men have been twins—and one twin
has always murdered their father.
As old tensions resurface, Jordan searches out the surreal
origins of his family and a way to escape the murder that is his inheritance. Following the
brothers’ every move are a mysterious hill dweller and his grotesque partner, a duo that will stop
at nothing to make sure the Baynes’ cursed legacy lives on.

Praise for Darkansas
“Reminiscent of the hillbilly noir of Daniel Woodrell, Middleton kicks up the violent secrets of
generations of Baynes and their genetic legacy of twins and patricide.” –Shelf Awareness
“A subversive twist on Southern myth surprisingly rich in its execution.” –Kirkus
“The devil didn’t go down to Georgia, he went to Arkansas, where the Bayne family struggle
against Beelzebub’s grip on their collective fates. Middleton’s ferocious debut has it all–sex,
song, sadness, and a history as dark and twisted as the Ozark hollers that fill these pages. Holy
hell, what a book.” –Peter Geye, author of Wintering
“Gritty, ghostly, poetic, Darkansas is sure to appeal to fans of William Gay and Shirley Jackson.
I’d bet a fifth of the top-shelf stuff it will be considered one of the best debuts of the year.” –
Donald Ray Pollock, author of The Heavenly TableForeign Rights Guide / Spitzer Agency / 2018 Page 19 “A mesmerizing debut [. . .] There is a dark magic in Middleton’s prose that is impossible to resist.” –Jonathan Evison, author of The Revised Fundamentals of Caregiving “Middleton’s lush writing creates an atmosphere both beauitful and horrific. A grand debut that pushes the limits of ‘Southern Gothic’ and delivers an engrossing story of family, love, and fate.” –Kathi Kirby, Powell’s Books “Middleton’s brilliant debut is a vivid, haunting page-turner in the American gothic tradition.” – Garth Stein, author of A Sudden Light “A slow burn [. . .] Before you know it you can’t put it down. A barbed meditation on fear, family, and the monstrousness of fate.” –Brian Evenson, author of Last Days “Reminiscent of the works of Larry Brown and Rick Bass; richly drawn, refreshing, and authentic [. . .] An innovative literary voice that I look forward to following for decades to come.” –Nickolas Butler, author of The Hearts of Men “From the get-go, Middleton grabs readers with an eerie dream about a violent death, a portent of things to come in his page-turning debut about a family’s curse. Generations of male Bayne twins are destined to be the catalysts in their fathers’ deaths. Jordan Bayne, a down-on-his-luck country and blues singer ever overshadowed by his famous entertainer father, makes the rounds of seedy clubs and bars in San Antonio before heading to the family home in the Ozarks for the wedding of his twin brother, Malcolm. Unbeknownst to the brothers, they’ve been watched for years by an ancient evil man and his nefarious henchman, who will make sure the boys’ father is killed on Malcolm’s celebratory day. While building up to the upcoming confrontation and underscoring the differences between the two brothers, Middleton takes readers back in time to earlier generations and other patriarchal disasters that caused family schisms, capturing different eras and characters and adding depth to the tale. The story takes a misstep when it gets mystical about the origin of the Bayne family’s affliction, which adds unnecessary confusion. Nonetheless, the book is elevated by Middleton’s prose, especially the rough and textured descriptions of the landscapes and environment.” – Publisher’s Weekly

The Names of Dead Girls (William Morrow, September 12
2017)
A dark and twisty sequel to the runaway bestseller The Silent
Girls, featuring Frank Rath, reinstated as lead detective to
investigate a case that may threaten the person he loves most
They all have names, the dead girls . . .
After years spent retired as a private investigator, Frank Rath is
lured back into his role as lead detective in a case that hits far too
close to home. Eighteen years ago his own sister and brother-in-
law were brutally murdered by a man who is more like an
animal. A man named Ned Preacher. Despite his hard-drinking,
womanizing ways, Rath cleaned up his act and adopted his baby niece Rachel, raising her as his
own.
Now, unthinkably, Preacher has been paroled. Rachel is in college and Rath must finally tell her
the truth about what happened to her parents. The danger intensifies when local girls begin to go
missing, in crimes that echo the past. Is the fact that girls are showing up dead right when
Preacher was released a coincidence? Or is he taunting Frank Rath, circling his prey until he
comes closer and closer to the one he left behind—Rachel. Rath’s investigation takes him from
the wilds of Vermont to the strip clubs of Montreal, but it seems that some evil force is always
one step ahead of him.
Told in eerie, haunting prose, with a mystery that grows deeper and darker on each page, Names
of Dead Girls is the sequel to the USA Today and New York Times bestseller The Silent
Girls. Eric Rickstad is a master of the bone-chilling, nightmare-inducing thriller and Names of
Dead Girls is one you won’t want to miss.

PRAISE FOR THE NAMES OF DEAD GIRLS:
"As I read Eric Rickstad’s latest, THE NAMES OF DEAD GIRLS, I felt myself constantly
wanting to skip ahead -- anxious, desperate, to find out what was going to happen. Such is the
intoxicating nature of the plot. Skipping ahead, however, would be a mistake. Take your time.
Savor the wonderfully drawn characters and lyrical prose. You’re in the hands of one of the best
in the business, at the very peak of his form. " – Michael Harvey
“Eric Rickstad is the rare writer who can wrap a dark, gritty story in smooth, poetic prose. If you

taut, masterful thriller and a terrific read.” – Alafair Burke

with a resurrected serial killer long-since presumed dead. Lured back onto the force to solve the
case, the former cop finds himself shackled by the limits of the law and tormented by his own
moral compass gone haywire. His daughter's in danger, but will he cross the line to protect her?
A menacing winter fog blankets northern Vermont in Rickstad's taut cat-and-mouse procedural.
Beautifully written with original language and imagery, The Names of Dead Girls is a chilling
page-turner. The superb cast of characters rings so very true, from the conflicted mom police
detective to the troubled Rachel Rath to the anthropomorphic, wet fog. Atmospheric, empathetic,
and addictive." -- James W. Ziskin

have you racing to the end even as you dread what’s coming.” - Steve Weddle, author of
COUNTRY HARDBALL
