Reviews For Crosshairs
Hunsicker has a flair for turning phrases, and his broken, wounded characters could have stepped straight from the pages of Cornell Woolrich's despairing stories.
A first-rate thriller. The terrific joy of Crosshairs is the dialogue – crisp, in your face, and as raw and mean as the east streets of Dallas, but with a fine line of humor shot-through.
Harry Hunsicker fuses a white-knuckled thriller with a post-modern detective novel: Layered, intense, and rich with deadly characters.
