Format:Paperback
A very gritty book, One of Montanari's early works but just as good as his later books, that were published in U.K. If your a fan, I highly reccomend it

Detective Jack Paris is a cop in early 90s Cleveland with Al Pacino hair. This may not mean a lot to you, but ladies love the hair. As well as being a ladies man Paris has open of the best solving rates in the country so when a particularly difficult case of murder appears he is given the job of solving it. Over the past few months someone has been targeting young women and killing them. Paris' investigations will take him into the seedy underbelly of the city were he will learn more about deviance than he would ever want.
`Deviant Ways' is an early book from Montanari, who has recently risen to fame with `Rosary Girls', like this later book `Deviant Ways' suffers from being cliché ridden. Written and set during the early 90s there is more than a touch of the `Basic Instincts' about this book. Some of the sex in this book is pretty vivid so read it with extreme caution. Aside from the naughty bits is a reasonable crime thriller than as some decent twists and a good ending. I started the book being embarrassed by the misogamist characters and over sexualisation, but by the end I had to begrudgingly respect its OTT nature. Not one for the light hearted.

An excellent book to read, but I was horrified to discover that it is exactly the same book as "Don't look Now" by Richard Montanari. Why was this information not made available to me as I have now purchased two books the same. There are two books in his Kevin Byrne/jessica Balzana Series with different titles for this country from The USA. They are Broken Angels-Merciless in USA, and Play Dead-Badlands in USA, but I did discover this information in my research. However, he is an excellant writer and I love his books.
