As if things arent bad enough in Penns River, development and funding of a new religious-themed mall grinds to a halt when heavily-armed assassins cut down five leaders of the towns fledgling drug trade while eating lunch in the food court. The television minister behind the mall has associates not normally associated with a ministry, outside drug gangs may be muscling into town, and the local mob boss could have an angle of his own. The cops have this and all the usual local activity to contend with in a story that extends beyond the borders of Penns River.Praise for RESURRECTION MALL
Dana Kings Resurrection Mall is a patchwork of desperation from a depressed river town written with genuine style and grit. Reed Farrel Coleman, New York Times bestselling author of What You BreakAnother thoughtful, taut, suspense filled novel from one of Americas best new writers, the great Dana King. Adrian McKinty, author of the Sean Duffy trilogiesResurrection Mall is a brilliant crime novel that deserves to win every award in sight. One of the best of the year. Tim Hallinan, author of the Poke Rafferty, Junior Bender, and Simeon Grist mystery seriesDana Kings Resurrection Mall draws you in from the beginning, like sipping a fine single malt that opens wonderfully in the glass and you have to keep sipping until the end. King has a skillful grasp on character and dialogue, and that, along with his rock-solid police procedure, makes for a gripping, authentic read. I am a big fan of the Penn River series, and I want more. David Swinson, author of The Second GirlAlong with Worst Enemies and Grind Joint, Resurrection Mall elevates Dana Kings masterful Penns River crime series into the best hard-nosed police procedural since TVs The Wire. Fun, gripping and thought-provoking, this third entry firmly plants ace Detective Ben Doc Dougherty in the ring with heavyweight crime-stoppers Elvis Cole, Alex Cross and Jack Reacher. All of Kings characters burst with no-nonsense, rural Pennsylvania life, but the author dives deepest into the most realistic and engaging crew of municipal cops Ive encountered since Joseph Wambaugh. Dont miss it! Jack Getze, author and Fiction Editor for Spinetingler MagazineComplex characters, smooth dialogue and a hell of a plot make this one a winner. Rest easy, Ross Macdonald. The torch has been passed. Terrence McCauley, author of Sympathy for the Devil and A Murder of Crows
