...murder is my day job.... |
"Lisa Black wows us with another tense and unputdownable thriller. She is, quite simply, one of the best storytellers around." -- Tess Gerritsen |

Coming Soon in September, 2010: |
During the Great Depression, the city of Cleveland was terrorized by more than the world's turmoil: a madman, who murdered by night and left his handiwork to be discovered in the first glare of day. He was America's version of Jack the Ripper, but more prolific. He was bloody. He was unknown. He was never caught. These are facts. Trail of Blood begins where history leaves off... |

KIRKUS likes Trail of Blood: Black ... has a strong heroine in MacLean. There’s a dash of romance thrown in, but the real action is in the field, as MacLean and her cousin look into crimes decades apart. The present-day narration is cut by the 1935–'36 saga of detective James Miller. At times, his simpler story, colored by rich history and period police work, threatens to take over. But the two work well together as police procedures past and present match up to reveal the truth behind the horrors haunting Cleveland. A smart step-by-step thriller. |
