A COOL BREEZE ON THE UNDERGROUND (November 2010)
“A flair for language, quick wit, and detail complete a winning first novel.” -- Library Journal
TOMATO RED (September 2010)
“Reading Tomato Red—the first Daniel Woodrell novel I came upon—was a transformative experience. It expanded my sense of the possibilities not only of crime fiction, but of fiction itself—of language, of storytelling. Time and again, his work just dazzles and humbles me. God bless Busted Flush for these glorious reissues. It’s a service to readers everywhere, and a great gift.” -- Megan Abbott
THE DEATH OF SWEET MISTER (March 2011)
“I can’t remember coming across a more precise evocation of innocence lost since Golding’s The Lord of the Flies. With The Death of Sweet Mister, Daniel Woodrell has written his masterpiece—spare, dark, and incandescently beautiful. It broke my heart.” -- Dennis Lehane
A FIFTH OF BRUEN
"[A] beautiful book... [T]his is a must have for all [Bruen's] fans." -- Jon Jordan, Crimespree Magazine
TOWER
"Brutally poetic... Bruen and Coleman shine... displaying all the literary chops that have made their novels such cult favorites among mystery fans." -- Publishers Weekly
KEN BRUEN ZIPPO
Only 200 of these FIFTH OF BRUEN etched Zippos were created. The perfect gift for any Ken Bruen fan.
CROSSROAD BLUES
“In Atkins’ hands, the characters are as substantial as a down-home breakfast of biscuits and ham with red-eye gravy . . . the riffs on the juke joints of the ’30s are sweet.”—Entertainment Weekly
DARK END OF THE STREET (October 2010)
“If Raymond Chandler came from the South, his name would be Ace Atkins.”—Kinky Friedman
WALKING THE PERFECT SQUARE
"Moe Prager is the thinking person's P.I. And what he thinks about—love, loyalty, faith, betrayal—are complex and vital issues, and beautifully handled." -- S. J. Rozan
REDEMPTION STREET
"If life were fair, Coleman would be as celebrated as Pelecanos and Connelly.... [My] favorite novel of the series [is] Redemption Street." -- Maureen Corrigan, NPR's Fresh Air
THE JAMES DEANS
"Some writers can make you feel that they have inhabited their characters to a degree associated with demonic possession, but Reed Farrel Coleman's gift is to graft that sensation onto the reader, so that he or she feels they're wearing the character like skin...[A] terrific writer, one of the finest of his generation. If you haven't read The James Deans yet, do yourself a favour and do so. It's how books are supposed to be." -- Declan Burke
THE MAN WHO..., omnibus #1
"One of my all-time favorite series!" -- Harlan Coben
THE MAN WHO..., omnibus #2
“[A] hilarious spoof of bestsellers and the people who write them… Deft touches of wit and humor… A dandy read.”—Mystery News on The Woman Who Fell from Grace
MIAMI PURITY
"Miami Purity is the toughest, sexiest, most original debut noir novel ever written, and instantly rockets Hendricks into the list of all-time great noir authors. Gripping, super-sexy, and unforgettably raw." -- Lauren Henderson
JUST ANOTHER DAY IN PARADISE
"The writing is lean and restrained, and Fiddler, growing from book to book, gives Travis McGee a real run for his money." -- Los Angeles Times
THE FROG AND THE SCORPION
“A. E. Maxwell wrote one of the smartest, most consistent PI series in recent memory. Big plots, great villains, and a kickass private eye with plenty of humanity. The toughness of Robert B. Parker’s early Spenser novels blended with the wry humor and scope of Ross Thomas. Wholly original, endlessly entertaining. The books of A. E. Maxwell are a forgotten treasure.” -- Tim Maleeny
GATSBY'S VINEYARD
"Unlike too many other fictional p.i.'s, Fiddler has aged well. So has his ex-wife and occasional bedmate, Fiora, one of the smartest, toughest, sexiest broads in crime fiction. The plots are well-hewn, the dialogue crackling, the bad guys among the very baddest. But the real payoff is A.E. Maxwell's gimlet-eyed take on California circa 1980s. From the yachty Newport crowd and the oenophiles of Napa to the dream-seeking denizens of L.A., Maxwell's books provide a sort of literary amber, capturing the scene and saving it for posterity." -- Bob Morris
JUST ENOUGH LIGHT TO KILL (February 2010)
Named by Time magazine as one of the best suspense novels of the year!
NOBLESSE OBLIGE
"Fast . . . clever . . . charming." -- Publishers Weekly
IMPOLITE SOCIETY
“I have been charmed right out of my high-heeled sandals by Cynthia Smith’s Impolite Society... a refreshing delight.”--The Washington Times
MISLEADING LADIES
“You'll enjoy every moment of international hobnobbing with this high society sleuth!” -- Nancy Martin
SILVER AND GUILT
(January 2011)
“Enchanting . . . a one-of-a-kind series with universal appeal. All mystery enthusiasts will clamor for more Emma Rhodes stories.” -- Bookbrowser
OLD DOGS, by Donna Moore (June 2010)
"Like the perfect heist, Donna Moore’s screwball caper is slick, audacious and hugely rewarding." -- Chris Ewan, author of The Good Thief's Guide to Paris
KILLER INSTINCT (May 2010)
“Charlotte (Charlie) Fox is one of the most vivid and engaging heroines ever to swagger onto the pages of a book. Where Charlie goes, thrills follow, and in Killer Instinct, Zoë Sharp keeps them coming hard and fast.” -- Tess Gerritsen
RIOT ACT (July 2010)
“If you’re looking for an author who can deliver high-octane thrills every time and a character who is NOT to be messed with, you’ve found them. Zoë Sharp and Charlie Fox both kick ass.” -- Mark Billingham
