For fans of Dexter and Hannibal, Hangman introduces an unforgettable new antihero."synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
"Let's cut to the chase: Hangman is a great read! Jack Heath's boundless imagination and singular voice have produced a truly unique thriller. By turns, psychologically insightful, wonderfully disturbed and even darkly comedic, Hangman will keep you coursing through the pages at a lightning pace. Brilliant! (Probably best read with lights on and doors locked. I'm just saying.)" -Jeffery Deaver, New York Times bestselling author
"Jack Heath's Hangman is a perverse, twisted take on a crime novel-and I loved every page of it. What a rarity to find a thriller as dark as a Palahniuk and as compulsively readable as a Patterson. Two well-chewed thumbs up for Hangman." -Gregg Hurwitz, New York Times bestselling author "Jack Heath's writing grabs you by the throat, gnaws on your bones, and washes it all down with a hefty dose of funny. Sick, twisted, violent, and oh so good. In Timothy Blake, Heath has created a one-of-a-kind character. I hope." -Emma Viskic, award-winning author of And Fire Came Down and Resurrection Bay "In the age of the anti-hero, morally ambiguous characters compel readers to empathize with and root for them, despite their troubled natures and character flaws. Enter Timothy Blake ... a civilian consultant with the FBI, who, in exchange for aiding investigations, is permitted access to death row inmates to temporarily satisfy his voracious appetite for human flesh. Yes, the hero of Jack Heath's debut adult novel is a cannibal detective. Readers able to abide this grisly affliction will easily lose themselves in this dark, bone-rattling thriller. ... In Hangman, Blake and FBI agent Reese Thistle face a ruthless kidnapper who has abducted a 14-year-old boy ... Hangman is ghoulish fun, and fills the Dexter- and Hannibal-shaped holes in our lives." -Bookseller & Publisher "A vivid and disturbing thriller. ... A grisly, efficiently written nail-biter packed with riddles and suspense, Hangman has bestseller written all over it." -The Age "Prose so hard-boiled it will crack your teeth." -Gordon Reece, author of Mice "The hero of Jack Heath's Hangman is certainly a monster, but strangely, ever so strangely, oddly likeable. ... This novel is all about tempo and character." -Weekend Australian "An enjoyable, fast-paced read perfect for readers with strong stomachs." -BooklistFirst published as a teenager, Jack Heath is the award-winning author of more than twenty fiction titles for young adult and middle-grade readers. He lives in Australia.
