Стивен Кинг: Later

“A treasure that’s not to be missed.”

“A gift to aficionados of the Cool and Lam series.”

“A time machine back to an exuberant era of snappy patter, stakeouts and double-crosses.”

Three years ago, detective John Blake solved a mystery that changed his life forever—and left a woman he loved dead. Now Blake is back, to investigate the apparent suicide of Dorothy Louise Burke, a beautiful college student with a double life. The secrets Blake uncovers could blow the lid off New York City’s sex trade… if they don’t kill him first.

Richard Aleas’ first novel, LITTLE GIRL LOST, was among the most celebrated crime novels of the year, nominated for both the Edgar and Shamus Awards. But nothing in John Blake’s first case could prepare you for the shocking conclusion of his second…

“An instant classic.”

“The best thing Hard Case is publishing right now.”

“His powerful conclusion will drop jaws.”

“So sharp [it’ll] slice your finger as you flip the pages.”

The finest writers and artists team up to tell searing crime stories in the visual medium:

In seedy, sordid 1980s Times Square, a peepshow performer finds evidence of a murder committed by the son of a wealthy real estate developer. But will she live to tell the tale?

A small-town sheriff comes to Washington, D.C. to investigate her sister’s disappearance and winds up deep undercover in the world of politicians, call girls, and the deadliest of dirty tricks.

Once a Marine sniper in Vietnam, Quarry came home to find his wife cheating on him and no work for a man whose only job skill was killing. Enter the Broker, an agent for professional hit men. But when the Broker assigns Quarry to kill a former platoon mate, will Quarry carry out the contract or fall prey to an attack of conscience? From the author of Road to Perdition , one of the most acclaimed graphic novels of all time.

Kidnapped and operated on by the vengeful sister of one of his victims, a professional killer emerges permanently altered—and with a thirst for revenge of his own. Inspired the movie starring Michelle Rodriguez and Sigourney Weaver.

The entire saga of Lisbeth Salander, adapted in three graphic novels—plus a fourth volume, The Girl Who Danced With Death , telling an all-new story unavailable in any other format.

In the years leading up to WWII, Berlin is a hotbed of crime and deception, intrigue and violence. Can one detective uncover its secrets and live to see justice done?

From acclaimed international artist Yoshimizu, the bloody story of a daughter of the Yakuza and her quest to learn her mother’s fate and redeem her suffering.

When he’s not pulling heists with his friend Parker, Alan Grofield runs a small theater in Indiana. But putting on shows is expensive and jobs have been thin, which is why Grofield agrees to listen to Andrew Myers’ plan to knock over a brewery in upstate New York.

Unfortunately, Myers’ plan is insane—so Grofield walks out on him. But Myers isn’t a man you walk out on…

“This first-rate hard-boiled mystery… reads like Raymond Chandler with a dark literary whisper… of Cormac McCarthy.”

“The prose is clean, the dialogue laced with dry humor, the action comes hard and fast.”

“Lemons Never Lie is a delight—a crime story that leaves you smiling.”

“The best Richard Stark ever.”

“Excellent, psychologically textured… Stephen King is so widely acknowledged as America’s master of paranormal terrors that you can forget his real genius is for the everyday.”

“King has written… a novel that’s as hauntingly touching as it is just plain haunted… one of his freshest and most frightening works to date.”

“Extraordinarily vivid… an impressive tour de force, a sensitive character study that holds the reader rapt.”

“Stephen King is superb.”

“Mr. King makes palpable the longing and regret that arise out of calamity.”

“King is a master at crafting a story and creating a sense of place.”

“Don’t start this one on a school night, kids. You’ll be up till dawn.”

“A thoroughly compelling thriller.”

“As brilliant a dark dream as has ever been dreamed in this century.”

“A great book… A landmark in American literature.”

“Stephen King is an immensely talented storyteller of seemingly inexhaustible gifts.”

“A rare blend of luminous prose, thought-provoking themes and masterful storytelling.”

“Not only immensely popular but immensely talented, a modern-day counterpart to Twain, Hawthorne, Dickens.”

“He’s a master storyteller. Gather around the pages of his literary campfire and he’ll weave you a darn good yarn.”

“King surpasses our expectations, leaves us spellbound and hungry for the next twist of plot.”

“Top shelf. You couldn’t go wrong with a King book.”

“Stephen King is the Winslow Homer of blood.”

“King has invented genres, reinvented them, then stepped outside what he himself has accomplished… Stephen King, like Mark Twain, is an American genius.”
