A novel set in the underbelly of upstate New York that's as
hardboiled and punchy as a swift right hook to the jaw, a classic
noir for fans of James Ellroy and John D. Macdonald. Isaiah
Coleridge is a mob enforcer in Alaska--he's tough, seen a lot, and
dished out more. But when he forcibly ends the money-making scheme
of a made man, he gets in the kind of trouble that can lead to a
bullet behind the ear. Saved by the grace of his boss and exiled to
upstate New York, Isaiah begins a new life, a quiet life without
gunshots or explosions. Except a teenage girl disappears, and
Isaiah isn't one to let that slip by. And delving into the
underworld to track this missing girl will get him exactly the kind
of notice he was warned to avoid. At turns brutally shocking and
darkly funny, heartbreaking and cautiously hopeful, Blood Standard
is both a high-tension crime novel and the story of a man's second
chance--the parts of his past he will never escape, and the parts
that will shape his future.
