Jim is infected with the vampire virus. Carol isn't. Yet. But they're united in their hunt for society’s most dangerous predators for Jim's dinner -- so he can feed without harming the innocent. What they don't know is that they're not alone. There are others on their trail, and the climax of Blood Crimes is a shocking jolt of pure mayhem and rock 'n roll violence.‘I've just read the manuscript of Dave Zeltserman's new novel, Blood Crimes. This is one of the few fresh takes on vampirism I've read in years. It's as if Charles Bukowski sat down and said, OK, Bram Stoker, how about this?’ -- Ed Gorman, author of Cage of Night and The Poker Club.'Blood Crimes is fast. It's visceral. It's definitely not your fourteen-year-old sister's dreamy vampire fantasy. This book grabs you by the guttiwuts, wrenches hard, and doesn't let go... But don't get me wrong, this isn't your run-of-the-mill shock literature. Zeltserman weaves a disturbing noir with a passionate craftsman's hand over his characters.' Mindy MacKayPraise for OUTSOURCEDA dark, lightening-paced read Financial TimesA small gem of crime fiction BooklistOutsourced is a dryly witty take on the heist caper genre... fast-paced action romp London TimesBodies mount up as the double dealing and revenge gather apace. The blurb on the book describes it as a fast-paced, edge-of-your seat crime novel, and it really does live up to the hype. Add this to your holiday reading list for a piece of escapism. Morning StarA finely paced, witty and stylish take on the heist caper novel. More than most authors churning out mysteries, Zeltserman is fully steeped in the conventions of crime fiction. He remains absolutely his own hard man. The AustralianDave Zeltserman's OUTSOURCED is a speedy, gritty, hardboiled bank robbery tale that bops and weaves along as a group of out-of-work computer programmers decide to get their hands dirty and find they like it a lot. As with Zeltserman's previous novels SMALL CRIMES, PARIAH, and KILLER, his greatest storytelling skill is in the small true, emotional details that every reader will understand. He will definitely keep you flipping pages as fast you can, and once you finish one book you'll be racing on to the next. Tom Piccirilli, author of Shadow Season and The Cold SpotPraise for THE CARETAKER OF LORNE FIELDdelicious horror-ish novel NewsdaySuperb mix of humor and horror Publishers Weekly, starred reviewsuperbly crafted horror story BooklistHarrowing. Zeltserman colors it black with the best of them. Kirkus Reviewsa very darkly funny dark fantasy Locus MagazineTHE CARETAKER OF LORNE FIELD succeeds as a horror novel, a psychological thriller and a haunting parable, even in some ways that Zeltserman may not have intended. There are dark levels to this work, some of which are immediately evident and others of which reveal themselves only upon later reflection. I don’t know if the book will come to be regarded as a classic, either now or at some point in the future, but it deserves to be.
