Accounts of a second shooter have attended on every assassination since JFK, but theres rarely any proof. After being commissioned by a small conspiracy-minded publisher to research the phenomenon, journalist Mike Karras realises he may have learned enough to stop a massacreor get himself killed."The Second Shooter is a sublime, clever and humorous dive into the murky waters of human perception and existence in a USA where nothing is real anymore" -- Starburst
* Starburst Magazine *"Mamatas offers plenty of scathing commentary on gun violence and misuse of social media in a novel that is both smart and topical" -- Financial Times
* The Financial Times *"A very thoughtful, funny and often exciting book." -- SFX Magazine
* SFX Magazine *"An entertaining thriller, amusing and disturbing by turns in its depiction of contemporary American obsessions." -- The Guardian
* The Guardian *"Mamatas has a firm grip on contemporary culture and conspiracy theories and an even firmer understanding of the morally dubious losers who make noir worth reading.” -- The Washington Post
