David Loogan is leading a new and quietly anonymous life in a new town. But his solitude is broken when he finds himself drawn into a friendship with Tom Kristoll, the melancholy publisher of the crime magazine Gray Streets - and into an affair with Laura, Tom s sleek blond wife. When Tom offers him a job as an editor, Loogan sees no harm in accepting. What he doesn t realise is that the stories in Gray Streets tend to follow a simple formula- PLANS GO WRONG. BAD THINGS HAPPEN. PEOPLE DIE. Then one night David s new boss phones him in a panic, asking him to come to his house immediately.

Reviews"Bad Things Happen is a very smart, well-written roller coaster ride that is always threatening to hurl the reader out into roaring empty space. Go along for the thrill ride!" * James Patterson * "Bad Things Happen is a tense read that keeps you tightly in its grip until the very last page. Harry Dolan has written an incredibly rich, smart read reminiscent of A Simple Plan or Presumed Innocent - not to mention that it's just a damn good story. Readers are in for a breathless ride" * Karin Slaughter * "Great f***ing book, man. I was totally hooked. I hope you write a dozen more, and that's just next year" * Stephen King * "Thriller-writing of the highest order" * Daily Mail * "You better believe [Dolan] has a gift for storytelling...The narrative comes with startling developments and nicely tricky reversals." * New York Times Book Review * | EAN: |
