Like Carl Hiaasen, Berney delights in the cartoonish. Like Elmore Leonard, he can drive a plot. What sets him apart is how well he evokes love, making the romance as compelling as the mystery. Boston Globe Lou Berney immediately earned a seat of honor at the mystery masters table with his crackling caper novel, Gutshot Straight a lightning-fast, fiendishly clever suspenser that screamed for a sequel. And here it is. Former professional wheel man Charles Shake Bouchon is back, living in the Caribbean paradise of Belize with his lawless past far behind him until a gunshot tears through his beachside restaurant and he s on the run again.

Hall, Robert Ferrigno, Tim Dorsey while establishing its own unique orbit in the noir universe."
