Produktbeschreibung

The Steel City Affair (A Val Buchanan Investigation Book 1)

A Pinkerton detective. A nation divided. A case that could shatter his oath.

1910, Pennsylvania. The coalfields burn with strikes and suspicion, and Val Buchanan is sent to keep order where there is none. Raised in the smoke of Pittsburgh's mills, he knows both sides of the fight-the men who sweat in the shafts and the owners who profit from their labor. But in the valley of steel and coal, every step uncovers deeper corruption.

As violence simmers and loyalties clash, Buchanan must decide whether justice means loyalty to his badge-or betrayal of it.

The Steel City Affair launches the Val Buchanan Investigations, a gripping series of historical crime thrillers steeped in America's violent labor wars. Perfect for readers of James Ellroy, Dennis Lehane, and Caleb Carr.

Step into the shadows of history and meet Val Buchanan-a detective bound by oath, haunted by conscience.

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.
