The first Quinn Colson novel, a contemporary book with a dash of classic westerns and noir. One of the best crime writers at work today.' Michael Connelly
A former journalist who cut his teeth as a crime reporter in the newsroom of The Tampa Tribune, he published his first novel, Crossroad Blues, at 27 and became a full-time novelist at 30.While at the Tribune, Ace earned a Pulitzer Prize nomination for a feature series based on his investigation into a forgotten murder of the 1950s. The story became the core of his critically acclaimed novel, White Shadow, which earned raves from noted authors and critics. In his next novels, Wicked City, Devil's Garden, and Infamous, blended first-hand interviews and original research into police and court records with tightly woven plots and incisive characters. The historical novels told great American stories by weaving fact and fiction into a colorful, seamless tapestry.Ace lives on a historic farm outside Oxford, Mississippi with his family.
I have always been impressed with (jealous of) how easy Ace Atkins makes it look. The Ranger is by far his best work...I hope Quinn Colson and Lillie Virgil stick around for a good long time,Atkins has written a bunch of great thrillers, but this one sets up a series that should push him to the top of the bestseller list.Atkins can run rings around most of the names in the crime field.This exciting thriller leaves you looking forward to the ranger's return. - Sunday Telegraph
