Product Description

Synopsis

Detective Del Farmer is investigating a murder. But the usual suspects are all in his head. "Believe in nothing, believe in Hell, believe in the Brain Hotel...Secret Dead Men is the most inventive, uplifting, hilarious, moving novel since Catcher in the Rye" -- Ken Bruen Del Farmer isn't your ordinary hardboiled private eye. Instead of collecting fingerprints or clues, he collects souls of the recently dead. His latest dead guy, Brad Larsen, might just be the key to destroying Farmer's longtime nemesis, The Association. Of course, Farmer is sadly mistaken. Larsen isn't offering up the goods. An FBI agent unstuck in time is toying with him. A mysterious couple keeps trying to kill him. Another job-a mundane babysitting gig that pays the bills-is threatening to steer him way off course into a violent hell of sexual deceit, fractured identities and cheap apartment toilets.

4.0 out of 5 stars Offbeat and quirky, 3 Feb 2009
By Joseph V. Zizza "An American transplant" (Peterborough, Cambs United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Secret Dead Men (Paperback)
This comes across as an offbeat private eye novel at first, albeit one with a slight supernatural twist. It continues to get stranger and quirkier with each chapter and ultimately reminded me (quite happily) of Philip Dick's novels. A distinctly individual take on the world and a prose style well-suited to making the outlandish seem ordinary make this book entertaining, and have got me looking for other books by Duane Swierczynski. Recommended to the open-minded.
