Description

Ridgefield, CT – Following the success of his first two novels, “Facts are Stubborn Things” and “Punch Line”, award-winning author Richard A. Danzig returns to the exhilarating world of lawyer Chance Cormac with “The Collectors” (September 15, 2025) a pulse-pounding journey from New York City’s world of finance and fine art to the hidden dangers of a tropical paradise.

When Chance is hired to investigate a valuable painting which is suspected of being a forgery, he discovers that the painting and his clients may not be what they seem.

Meanwhile in Costa Rica, former Navy SEALs Damian and JR are arrested for the murder of a surfer that washed up on the beach near their surf shack. As they fight to survive inside a violent prison, Chance uncovers a black market of human exploitation, greed and blood money, all protected by a corrupt police force.

Bringing back fan favorite characters, The Collectors is a legal thriller that blends courtroom drama, suspense, and international intrigue and is perfect for fans of John Grisham and Michael Connelly.

Advance Praise

"Punch Line makes a meaningful impact in the literary realm by addressing contentious issues within a thriller framework, creating a story that is both entertaining and thought-provoking. Like a comedian delivering a punchline that resonates long after the laughter fades, the novel compels readers to confront uncomfortable societal truths while keeping them thoroughly entertained. This work evokes both a tense courtroom drama and a compelling examination of society that lingers in the reader’s thoughts long after the final gavel falls."

– The Chrysalis Brew Project

"Danzig saves the best for last in a twisty climax the reader will not see coming. He leaves the reader wanting more, just what needs to be done for the first book of this series. ‘Facts Are Stubborn Things’ is wonderfully written, perfectly paced, and introduces a principled protagonist who readers will want to see again."

– Independent Book Review

"For fans of legal maneuvering, Danzig has filled the book with riveting subject matter, including precedents for father’s rights cases, the rights of sperm donors, liability of property owners, the impact of disclaimers and much more. The most fascinating legal aspect of the book by far is whether TAG could be held liable for the assault on Slater. But lest you think the final third of the book will consist entirely of courtroom drama, think again. Danzig unleashes several more surprises that readers won’t see coming."
