Night Candy

Praise for Night Candy

“Tomlinson’s at his best.”—Publishers Weekly

“[Line of Darkness is a] tightly crafted crime thriller with writing that hums and vibrates on the page . . . Buy your ticket and get in line, you'll want to be first on this wild ride.” —Carlene O'Connor, USA Today best-selling author

“Line of Darkness is an engrossing noir novel that grows darker and more complex under the lingering pall of Nazism.” —Foreword Reviews

“Atmospheric and tense, this one sizzles with twists that entertain and magnetize, whetting the appetite for more.” —Steve Berry, New York Times best-selling author

“As beautifully written as it is expertly crafted, [the series] features characters drawn with the touch of a master artist and a story that sizzles even as it scintillates.” —Jon Land, USA Today best-selling author

* “[In Tie Die, Tomlinson] deepens the character of his multi-layered lead, Colleen Hayes, an unlicensed PI and ex-con who’s still on parole. Readers will want to learn more about this surprising and pragmatic woman.” —Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)

“Tomlinson's evocation of San Francisco at that time is spot on, and Colleen is an appealing kick-ass detective.” —Booklist

“Bad Scene is an enjoyable read that captures the imagination of mystery and thriller readers—and those who harbor hope that anyone in depths of despair can climb out of the abyss.” —Bookreporter

“Max Tomlinson serves up the perfect mystery in this edgy new detective series set in ’70s San Francisco. Colleen Hayes, an ex-con in search of her missing teenage daughter, finally lands her first big case. There’s just one problem: she must find a killer who’s been lurking since the Summer of Love. Not to be missed.” —James N. Frey, author of How to Write a Damn Good Thriller

“Max Tomlinson delivers a gritty, gripping story set in a fascinating time. Colleen Hayes is a deeply sympathetic sleuth, all too human. I can’t wait for her next adventure.” —Evan Marshall, author of City in Shadow

“I’ve just three words to say about [Vanishing in the Haight] by Max Tomlinson—Wow. Just. Wow. Tomlinson’s taut, spare, evocative writing style is an absolute beauty. You couldn’t ask for a better guide through the dark, shadowy flashback haze of ‘70s San Francisco.” —Tracy Clark, author of Broken Places
