The Hunter- A Parker Novel

The Hunter: A Parker Novel - $285

21 March, 2013 by rgonzalezr

  You probably haven’t ever noticed them. But they’ve noticed you. They notice everything. That’s their job. Sitting quietly in a nondescript car outside a bank making note of the tellers’ work habits, the positions of the security guards. Lagging a few car lengths behind the Brinks truck on its daily rounds. Surreptitiously jiggling the handle of an unmarked service door at the racetrack. They’re thieves. Heisters, to be precise. They’re pros, and Parker is far and away the best of […]

A Bomb Built in Hell- Wesley's Story

A Bomb Built in Hell: Wesley’s Story – $260

15 November, 2012 by rgonzalezr

  Andrew Vachss‘ pre-Flood novel A Bomb Built in Hell was written in 1973. It was rejected by every publisher, one of whom described it as a “political horror story,” others of whom berated it for its “lack of realism,” including such things as Chinese youth gangs and the fall of Haiti. And the very idea of someone entering a high school with the intent of destroying every living person inside was just too … ludicrous. Readers of Vachss’ Burke series will immediately […]
