Description

SO DARK THE NIGHT is a supernatural mystery, an homage to film noir, cult TV and pulp fiction. Imagine a weird hybrid of Raymond Chandler, the films of Val Lewton and “The X Files”.

Cassandra Zinnea and Evgeny Nightstalk are operatives employed by After Hours Investigations, a detective agency open from dusk ’til dawn. Their odd hours attract a mixed and eccentric clientele and, inevitably, they find themselves involved in cases that have paranormal and occult overtones. Zinnea’s the brains and Nightstalk supplies the brawn and as a team they’re practically unbeatable. Their relationship is fractious, bittersweet, and together they make up the most attractive and likable tandem since Holmes and Watson trod the mean streets of Victorian London.

But this time they might be in over their heads as an evil group of occultists plot to bring about the end of the world.

SO DARK THE NIGHT is a tightly crafted novel, a work that was three years in creation. I have been a professional author for almost 25 years and I feel that this novel--and its followup, OF THE NIGHT--are the finest efforts I've ever committed to paper. Read the first 10 or 12 pages, meet two of the most endearing protagonists you're likely to come across this year. By turns scary and funny, SO DARK THE NIGHT is an homage to the night time world celebrated in film noir: dark street corners and twisting passageways, a labyrinth complete with monsters. Fans of Raymond Chandler, James Crumley, Jonathan Carroll and Neil Gaiman will find much to their liking as they explore my two "Ilium" novels. My solemn promise to readers is never to bore them and it's a vow I've done my best to keep for more than two decades...
