Description
"Will tear your head off and make you like it."-- "Bookreporter" "Earl Javorsky's DOWN TO NO GOOD is a wild, surreal, fast-paced ride and an excellent new entry in this powerful series. The vivid, engaging prose hooked me on page one, and I couldn't turn the pages fast enough. If you're looking for an original, enlightening PI series for the 21st century, look no further than this one."--David Bell "Earl Javorsky is a special kind of writer, and DOWN TO NO GOOD is a special kind of mystery. Not only is it a fine mystery that dips into big ideas like death, the prevalence of hoaxes, and the sometimes razor-thin line between the known and the unknown, but it's also a drug-fueled excavation of the human heart. The writing is alternatively clear and hallucinogenic as Javorsky switches points of view with ease between two equally compelling leads. If you're looking for a paint by numbers crime novel, look elsewhere. But if you're looking for a powerful slice of entertaining dark noir that is will make you turn pages and think about the nature of reality as you do, this is your book."--Hank Early, author of HEAVEN'S CROOKED FINGER "DOWN TO NO GOOD begins with the central character dead and then brings him back to life to face a very bad day. That's Earl Javorsky's world: mind-boggling, dark, hilarious, and unforgettable. If you haven't read him, well, it's your own fault."--Timothy Hallinan, Timothy Hallinan, bestselling author of the Poke Rafferty series and the Junior Bender series "Original and seductive reading. Earl Javorsky doesn't do re-treads. This is a unique voice with traction."--James Ziskin, winner of the Anthony Award for Best Paperback Original and the Macavity Award for Best Historical Novel "DOWN TO NO GOOD is a deep dive into the weird and wild that had me staying up far later than normal. A whacked-out thrill ride filled with psychics and cops and a drug-loving PI who just can't stay dead. What's not to love?"--Brett Battles, USA Today bestselling author Earl Javorsky's DOWN TO NO GOOD is wildly original, wildly energetic, wildly funny - it's just straight up wild, and I mean that in the best possible way.--Lou Berney, Edgar Award-winning author of THE LONG AND FARAWAY GONE
