A Killer's Essence - Tapa blanda

Praise for "A Killer's Essence"

"Last night I finished the best crime novel I have read in the last year -- an advance reading copy of Dave Zeltserman's book "A Killer's Essence", which will be published by Overlook Press in September. The story line was superb as well as the characters . . . [Zeltserman] nailed the atmosphere of New York City and Brooklyn. There is no question that our customers will love this book. And there is no question that I want a copy for my collection, when this comes out." --Dave Kanell, co-owner Kingdom Books in Vermont
Praise for "A Killer's Essence"
""Few writers are Zeltserman's equal in setting up the chessboard with obsessive perps and depressive cops . . . Zeltserman's lean but muscular style, so evident in ["A Killer's Essence"] and "The Caretaker of Lorne Field," is just as sharply honed here. His ability to juggle Green's story and Lynch's, develop a riveting murder mystery, and even mix in some Brighton Beach ex-KGB sleazeballs, all in less than 250 pages, is a pretty neat page-turning trick . . . a memorable winner." -- "The Boston Globe"
"This eerie thriller deftly blurs the lines between madness and the perception of reality." -- "New Jersey Star-Ledger"
