Praise for Dave Zeltserman:
"If there's any other young writer out there who does crime noir
better than Zeltserman, I don't even want to know."--Maureen
Corrigan, "The Washington Post"
"Zeltserman's breakthrough crime novel deserves comparison with
the best of James Ellroy."--"Publishers Weekly," starred review
""Pariah" is all I know of bliss and lament. Bliss at reading a
superb novel and lament at knowing that Dave Zeltserman has now
raised the bar so high, we're screwed."--Ken Bruen
Following from his ultra-noir trilogy--"Small Crimes," "Pariah,"
and "Killer"--is "Outsourced," Dave Zeltserman's most commercial
book to date.
A classic heist thriller pitched somewhere between "Ocean's
Eleven" and "Dog Day Afternoon," it's the story of a group of
software engineers who lose their jobs due to an industry push to
outsourcing. Desperate, and seeing their middle-class lives
crumbling apart, they come up with a brilliant plan to use their
computing skills to rob a bank. But not even a systems analyst can
foresee every eventuality, so the group falls afoul of the Russian
Mafia . . .
Movie rights have been sold for "Outsourced," and the film will
be produced by the team behind the hugely successful "Resident
Evil" films.
Dave Zeltserman has, over the years, worked developing data
communication software at some of the world's leading networking
and computer companies. He lives in the Boston area with his wife
Judy. His previous novels include "Small Crimes" (voted one of
NPR's top five crime and mystery novels of 2008), "Pariah," and
"Killer."
