Opis

Andy Troy's first novel, Grim Devices, is a thriller set in the menacing, sprawling metropolis of Arc City. Police detective Dante Ford, once a gang member in the Arc's underworld, now finds himself the target of a horrifying plot. He is sent a snuff film, his gangland allies are kidnapped, and he is hunted by a mysterious, terrifying figure in black. There is no telling how far Dante must search, or how deeply he must suffer, to save the city he loves. Inspired by pulp fiction and classical archetypes, Grim Devices is at once a celebration and a deconstruction of the modern thriller. Even as Dante is haunted by his violent past, he is also plagued by the vicious masked killer known only as Me. With a mythic cast of characters aiding him in his struggles, Dante discovers that the key to defeating his nemesis lies in returning to the life he abandoned-- however painful it might be.
