The Assassins' Ball

Autor Patrick Thomas, John L. French
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 aug 2018
When it comes to murder at a convention of killers, everyone is a suspect. Husband and wife private investigators Jack and Annie Gardner are very good at their jobs. He's a one-handed demolitions expert and bomb disposal specialist. She's a former circus performer and a crack shot. Together they run Gardner Investigations. Joseph Mozzano is the former head of the Baltimore mob. When his grandson is murdered at a secret annual assassins' convention being held in Baltimore on the QT there is little he can do. He can't go to the cops and the man who runs the convention is too powerful for even his organization to take on. So he goes to the only one who can help-Jack Gardner, the man who years ago put him away. Jack and Annie reluctantly agree to go undercover among the professional murderers using his skills with explosives and hers with guns to pose as killers. It may be the toughest case of their careers. Death is but a dance away at THE ASSASSINS' BALL "The Assassins' Ball is a delightful tongue-in-cheek romp reminiscent of a modern-day Thin Man adventure. Jack and Annie Gardner are the new 'first couple' of mystery and suspense." -Michael A. Black, author of Chimes at Midnight and the Executioner series. Praise for previous books by Patrick Thomas & John L. French "Bullets and Brimstone by Patrick Thomas & John L. French is a very entertaining paranormal mystery that showcases the writing prowess of both authors to their utmost… it is packed with enough page-turning suspense and LOL humorous writing to make it well worth buying and adding to your reading list." -Douglas R. Cobb, Bestsellersworld.com "From the Shadows… the writing is top notch, the plots exciting, and the characters are fun. This is the best new pulp I've read in years, and hope the authors return with these characters in more adventures." -Tom Johnson, Pulp Den "Tales from the Pulpside delivers what it promises and then some. Guaranteed to entertain any true pulp fan and hopefully help recruit many new ones along the way. We would truly love to see more like this." -Ron Fortier, Pulp Fiction Reviews PATRICK THOMAS is the author of over thirty books including the Murphy's Lore fantasy humor series, Startenders, the Dear Cthulhu advice columns and books and a host of paranormal mysteries that include Fairy Rides the Lightning, Dead to Rites, Lore & Dysorder and the Mystic Investigators series including Once More Upon A Time. His books have been spotted on the CSI television show and his Fairy with a Gun was optioned for film and TV by Laurence Fishburne's Cinema Gypsy Productions. Patrick's website is www.patthomas.net.

Notă biografică

There's been a debate among certain obscure and drunken literary scholars about whether PATRICK THOMAS was raised by Cthulhu or a leprechaun in a Manhattan bar. What there is no arguing about is that Patrick is the award-winning author of 50+ books including the beloved fantasy humor Murphy's Lore series, the darkly hilarious Dear Cthulhu advice empire, as well as the Bikini Jones adventure books. Patrick pens the Hexcraft and Terrorbelle urban fantasy series, co-writes the Mystic Investigators paranormal mystery series, and is the creator of the Agents of the Abyss. Dear Cthulhu has expanded from magazines and books to broadcast monthly on the radio show Destinies: The Voice of Science Fiction. Over 100 of his stories have been published in magazines and anthologies. A number of his books were part of the props department of the CSI television show and Nightcaps was even thrown at a suspect's head. His urban fantasy Fairy With A Gun at one point had been optioned for film and TV by Laurence Fishburne's Cinema Gypsy Productions. Top Men Productions turned his Soul For Hire Story, Act of Contrition, into a short film. DPH Games is releasing a card game based on his 142nd Starborne military SF stories. As Patrick T. Fibbs, he writes middle readers including the Babe B. Bear Mysteries, The Undead Kid Diaries, Joy Reaper Checks Out, the YA Emotional Support Nightmare, and the Fushia The Mermaid and the Ughabooz picture books for younger kids.
