Revolver by Duane Swierczynski
The bullet was fired in 1965... it's about to hit home. This is the story of one family, one crime, and many consequences, by Duane Swierczynski, 'a great storyteller' (Michael Connelly).
Compulsive, written with wry humanity and a deft and thrilling touch for the unexpected * Daily Mail *
A three-generation crime saga.. a resounding success, with each story line featuring full-blooded characters and intrigue that works both in its own right and in the larger context... Swierczynski just gets better and better. * Booklist *
I love the real American cop/noir feel to this novel and think the interwoven individual stories works incredibly well...This is a perfect blend of historical fiction and crime fiction. Highly recommended 5* -- Anne Bonny Book Reviews
Duane Swierczynski writes the 'new noir,' full of bad choices, courage, and sudden disaster, all delivered at a break-neck pace -- Charlaine Harris, author of the bestselling True Blood series
Inventive...breathes fresh life into a familiar plot with shifting perspectives, sly humor, puckish chapter titles and a crackerjack pace * Kirkus Reviews *
Duane Swierczynski is a much-needed breath of fresh air in the book world...This guy is a great storyteller. I never know what he is going to come up with or where he is going to take me. I just know I won't be complaining about a thing once I get there. -- Michael Connelly
The premise may be absurd, but it's good enough to propel the breathless action scenes that make Swierczynski's cinematic novels so much fun to read - on the couch or on the run. * New York Times *
If non-stop, cool action sequences with fun characters are your thing, you need to read some Swierczynski stories * Wired *
