Publisher's Overview & Introduction

Friday, 21 September 2007

Dear Mystery Fan, Smalltown USA is the backdrop for this latest Capital Crime Press offering. Welcome to Jasonville, Indiana, where new novelist Jeffrey Leever has crafted a tale that combines the suspenseful hooks of James Patterson with Stephen Kingish chills—wrapped up in a mystery that will keep you guessing, and maybe sleeping with the lights on. Dark Friday explores themes of life imitating art, entertainment and pop culture, guilt and justice, and friendship vs. truth. The book introduces fiction fans to Kevin Gibson, an investigative journalist with a knack for dredging up a story like no one else can, while crossing serious lines in the process—yet somehow pulling it all off artfully. Joining Kevin is a cast of characters who will intrigue and frighten you, make you laugh and make you squirm, and scenes that come off the page in a visceral, pulse-pounding way. With starred reviews in Publishers Weekly, Booklist, and others—plus awards and industry recognition, mass market rights sold to New York publishers, and movie rights optioned to Hollywood—Capital Crime titles are making waves. We're proud to be an emerging force, bringing you some of the best and brightest mystery voices on the market. Dark Friday represents an exciting step in our publishing journey: to introduce you to an emerging, talented writer and another memorable read. Alex Cole Publisher, Capital Crime Press
