Produktbeschreibung

The Black Tom Saboteurs (A Val Buchanan Investigation Book 8)

1916, Jersey City. Midnight fire on the piers. At 2:08 a.m., the world explodes.

Ex-Pinkerton turned private investigator Val Buchanan arrives on the East Coast still carrying scars from San Francisco. When the Black Tom munitions depot erupts in fireballs that light the harbor and shatter windows across Manhattan, officials call it an "accident." Buchanan knows better.

In the fog of cover-ups and politics, he walks alleys where knives wait, cellars where doctor's hands build cigar bombs, and parishes where immigrant families whisper the names Jahnke and Witzke like curses. Beside him stands Detective Nora Flynn-sharp, unyielding, one of the few willing to trust him. Together they follow a trail of false keys, burned timbers, and ghosts who always stay one step ahead.

From the scarred face of the Statue of Liberty to the causeways where men die for a handful of coins, Buchanan finds the same truth he learned in the mines of Colorado and the streets of Chicago: power prefers silence, and truth has to fight to be heard.

Perfect for fans of historical noir, espionage thrillers, and gritty, character-driven crime fiction.

Read Book 8 in the Val Buchanan Investigations-a gripping mystery of sabotage, corruption, and betrayal, set against the blast that shook America on the eve of war.

Autorenporträt

James Dargan is the author of over thirty books spanning crime, noir, satire, historical fiction, and literary fiction. Known for razor-sharp dialogue, vivid characters, and a knack for weaving grit with dark humour, his work ranges from the hard-boiled streets of the Napoleon Clancy thrillers to the sprawling crime sagas of The Bayside City series, the evocative Latin American novels, and a host of standalone titles.

Dargan's novels often drop readers into morally complex worlds where loyalty is fragile, justice is elusive, and survival depends on quick thinking and a little luck. Influenced by the likes of Elmore Leonard, Dennis Lehane, and Cormac McCarthy, his prose balances propulsive storytelling with atmospheric detail, creating stories that are as cinematic as they are immersive.

Whether exploring mob wars and political corruption, the quiet desperation of outsiders, or the chaos of history's turning points, Dargan writes with an unflinching eye and a storyteller's instinct for pacing, character, and place. His work is as much about the people caught in the crossfire as it is about the bullets themselves.
