Reviews For Andy Straka
Straka’s storytelling is as strong as talons, and once he’s got you in his grip, he never lets go.
Frank Pavlicek is a breath of fresh air in the field of private eye fiction. Witty, sharp, and flesh-and-blood real.
A book this good, and this original, helps remind me why I started reading mysteries in the first place...
