Pariah
Description:
Product Description From the bestselling author of CRY BABY comes the novel that introduced Detective Callum Doyle. Highly Commended in the Crime Writers’ Association Debut Dagger Awards, PARIAH has been variously described as a ‘slick, edgy and cinematic novel’ and a ‘brilliant, fast-paced debut with taut, action-packed prose’. Where can you turn when your very presence brings death to those around you? That’s the question Detective Callum Doyle is about to face. It begins with the calculated murder of his partner on a vacant lot. But more death is to follow, and when the chilling anonymous messages arrive, Doyle is left in no doubt that this is about him. You cannot go near your friends, your colleagues, or even your family. Because if you do... they will be killed. To save others, Doyle is forced to cut himself off from society. But with the investigation getting nowhere and his isolation becoming unbearable, Doyle has to ask himself how much he’s willing to sacrifice to get his life back. PRAISE FOR PARIAH “Recalls Harlan Coben – though for my money Jackson is the better writer... It's a neat twist on a familiar cat-and-mouse premise and Jackson does well with it. The writing is punchy and propulsive...” --The Guardian “Doyle takes to the mean streets to fight fire with fire. This is an action-packed debut.” --Irish Independent “A gripping, twisting thriller by a UK writer to watch.” --Peterborough Evening Telegraph “If you're looking for a page turner with pithy dialogue, this is it... The clues were all there but the writing was so good that I rushed right over them.” --Ann Weisgarber, Orange Prize longlisted author of The Personal History of Rachel Dupree “Jackson falls comfortably into the role of highly polished and seasoned author... A great read from a great new author.” --Crimesquad “An intelligent novel, Pariah is a remarkable debut... New York's finest battle it out in this pulsating crime thriller.” --Milo's Rambles “A great high-speed, high-drama thriller which I sped through in two sittings... You're in for a damn good time.” --Books and Writers “Jackson can write a fast-paced thriller and should be proud to stand alongside his heroes... I challenge you to find a hole in the NY doughnut that is Jackson's authenticity of place and culture.” --It's a Crime! “Weaves a fantastic web of fear, deceit and lowlife... The pace alone might kill you.” --Mel Sherratt, author of Taunting the Dead “Exceptionally well written... The tension is held up all the way through.” --Tangled Web
