The books tone is Chandleresque, the conspiracy worrying Carver and Jenner expands to Pynchonian proportions, and the physical ick they encounter might have oozed out of a Cronenberg movie.--Washington Post Its Miami Vice meets The Matrix, and George Orwell is hosting the party.--Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Its late Thursday and Inspector Ross Carver is at a crime scene: a dead man covered in an unknown substance thats eating through his skin. Suddenly, six FBI agents burst in and haul Carver outside and into a disinfectant trailer, where hes shocked unconscious. On Sunday he wakes up in his own bed, his neighbor Mia--who hes barely spoken to--by his side. He cant remember the past three days. Mia says police officers brought him home and told her hed been poisoned. Carver cant disprove her, but his gut says to keep her close. A mind-bending, masterfully plotted thriller--like Blade Runner if it were written by Charles de Lint or Neil Gaiman*--The Night Market follows Carver as he works to find out what happened to him, soon realizing hes entangled in a massive web of conspiracy. And that Mia knows a lot more than she lets on. Mystery and thriller readers will find much to love here, but fans of science fiction also should embrace this incredible work.--Bookreporter *Publishers Weekly, starred review
