Review
"Hunsicker does everything right -- no nonsense prose, a tough but sympathetic hero, and a case that pulls at the heartstrings. Still River proves that the modern private eye model is alive and well. I can't wait for the next in this series."
--Rick Riordan, Edgar and Shamus Award-winning author of Southtown and The Devil Went Down to Austin
"Great new noir...if this doesn't light you up, seek immediate medical help."
--Lee Child, bestselling author of The Enemy and Persuader
"Lee Oswald is the kind of man you want on your side -- hard as titanium but with a heart as big as Texas. Hunsicker really delivers the goods in this impressive debut."
--Steve Hamilton, Edgar and Shamus Award-winning author of Ice Run
"Still River is a marvelously written debut with vivid characters, a terrific plot, and a richly portrayed Dallas, from its glories to its gutters. Private eye Lee 'Hank' Oswald is everything a reader wants in a hero: tough but good-hearted, fearless but flawed. Harry Hunsicker puts Dallas squarely on the modern mystery map with this outstanding novel."
--Jeff Abbott, three-time Edgar nominee and author of Go Deep
"Take a wild ride down the dark, dusty, and often dangerous streets of Dallas with Lee Oswald, P.I. Still River is a terrific debut."
--Chuck Hogan, author of The Standoff
"This is fast-paced action, with plenty of laughs along the way. Harry Hunsicker creates characters as big and bold as Dallas."
--Ben Rehder, author of Bone Dry and Buck Fever
Product Description
It's not easy being named Oswald, at least not in the city where Lee Harvey grabbed his fifteen minutes of infamy and choked it to death. It's especially hard when half the town seems deter- mined to kill you for reasons as murky as the river that splits the city in two. For Lee Henry Oswald, a private investigator, Gulf War vet, and terminal loner, it's just one more burden to face as he trudges through the gritty underbelly of the concrete and glass metropolis that is Dallas in the new millennium. A simple assignment turns deadly when Oswald asks the right questions in the wrong places, and finds himself drawn into a shadowy world of smooth-talking drug lords and double- dealing real estate developers. In the end, he learns that blood is not always thicker than water, especially the muddy tributaries of the Trinity River, where he confronts the ultimate in dysfunctional families as he races to save the life of his partner.
