“Patrick Simpson’s return to his character Truman Pierce proves that some writers can go back to the well and come up with something completely different. A sharp and satisfying novel that shows growth for both the writer and the character.” — Brandon Barrows, author of And Of Course, There Was The Girl.

“Simpson’s books inject the rich atmosphere and impassioned, soulful characters of classic noir into a bleak modern world that has become numb to its own corruption” — Douglas Lumsden, author of A Troll Walks into a Bar

“A sleek mystery with vengeance in its blood. Mean, violent, and satisfying.” — Coy Hall, author of A Seance for Wicked King Death

“Reilly is an action-packed yarn in the pulp tradition. Murder, greed, corruption, and revenge are woven throughout its DNA. In his second outing, janitor-turned-investigator, and a man who can’t stop himself from punching up at his own peril, Truman Pierce continues to establish himself as a solid protagonist we want to root for and can’t wait to see in action again.” — Whiskey Leavins, author of Low Angle Shot
