Buried on Avenue B

by Peter de Jonge
ebook
Read a sample Read a sample
Brilliant detective Darlene O'Hara returns in "a pleasing blend of comedy and crime" from the #1 New York Times–bestselling author of Shadows Still Remain (The Washington Post Book World).
An edgy and suspenseful noir thriller, Buried on Avenue B traverses the gritty landscape of New York's Lower East Side and the more sordid corners of Sarasota, Florida, as a gruesome and unexpected discovery in a makeshift Alphabet City grave heats up a seventeen-year-old cold case.
James Patterson calls Darlene O'Hara "one of the freshest, hippest detective creations in many a year," and the New York Times has described Peter de Jonge's writing as "in the noirish, character-driven vein of Dennis Lehane or Michael Connelly." For fans of serious crime fiction, Peter de Jonge is a must-read, and Detective Darlene O'Hara is cop to be reckoned with.
"De Jonge's cop humor is true to life and the crime is true to the city. He also does sweet justice to New York, evoking the Lower East Side of thirty years ago as his cops work its latter-day streets." —New York Daily News
"The author's hard-drinking, hard-living protagonist returns in a second edgy investigative thriller, which comes full circle in a stunningly creative manner. His hard-boiled prose and urban slang transport readers of serious crime fiction through gritty, harsh scenes populated with colorful characters. Another stellar read from de Jonge." —Library Journal (starred review)
