Red Cat by Spiegelman Peter
As a cop, John March once flirted with danger. Then his wife was murdered and his flirtation became full time engagement. Now he is a private investigator in one of the most dangerous places on earth, New York City. He is a loner whose job has destroyed every new attempt at a relationship. The one thing he has promised himself is that he will never mix danger and his private life again. But that's before his brother asks John to warn off the mysterious young woman who is blackmailing him. He knows her only as Wren. Principle identifying mark: a red cat tattoo. And that's before the woman's dead body is pulled out of the East River. People remember John asking questions about Wren. Now he is prime suspect in a homicide case.
"Peter Spiegelman is a fine storytellerRed Cat is an intriguing tale of obsession and revenge" Daily Telegraph "Red Cat is totally seductive - smart, sharp, with an undercurrent of tension that runs like a subterranean stream beneath the city" Don Winslow "Red Cat is the best mystery I've read in a long time. Taut, gritty, and beautifully written. John March is one of the great fictional PI's of the past decade. Conflicted, sympathetic, and brilliantly brought to life." Christopher Reich "What distinguishes the novel is the level of the writing. Red Cat is one of the most interesting crime novels you're likely to encounter" Washington Post "Spiegelman's sharp prose pulls the reader straight through to the bittersweet end" Wall Street Journal
