PI Fritz Malone returns in the eagerly awaited follow-up to Richard Hawke's acclaimed series debut, 'Speak of the Devil'
Late-night TV sensation Marshall Fox is on trial after two women he knew well turn up dead. But it's when a third woman dies in a manner chillingly reminiscent of the first two murders that PI Fritz Malone starts to pay attention.
Fritz, wracked with guilt, plunges into an investigation that quickly proves that Fox's world is full of worthy suspects and that this case threatens anyone involved with unparalleled peril. And when Fox's lawyer is found murdered in Central Park, Malone knows that whoever is behind it all is getting desperate -- and that time is running out.
'Cold Day in Hell' confirms Richard Hawke as a worthy successor to the street-smart, noir tradition of Carl Hiaasen and Walter Mosley.
