Incinerator

Timothy Hallinan

0/5 ( ratings)

2011 Edgar and Macavity nominee Timothy Hallinan's six novels featuring erudite Los Angeles private eye Simeon Grist have become cult favorites and are now available for the first time since the 1990s. In the fourth book, INCINERATOR, Grist comes up against his most terrifying adversary, a madman who's setting fire to the homeless. As Simeon is drawn into the case – very much against his will – he realizes that the Incinerator has a huge advantage. Somewhere, years ago, the two of them met, and the Incinerator has been nursing hatred and resentment for years. Now, as helpless people burst into flame on Skid Row, Simeon has to scour the wastelands of Los Angeles, and his own past, looking for the face of a killer.

“A skittering roller-coaster ride . . . one of the most intriguing of the new private eyes.” Booklist

“A generous and inventive writer . . . Hallinan has talent and skill. Simeon Grist is a classic California hard-boiled detective, beautifully playing the role of knight errant.” The Drood Review

"Effective prose, engaging repartee, sharp and witty characterizations . . . Hallinan has a genuine ability.” Washington Post Book World

“Timely, suspenseful, and exciting.” – Sidney Sheldon
