The premise of Chis Holm's latest series is simple - Michael Hendricks is a hitman who kills other hitmen - and, with Red Right Hand, the second entry after last year's The Killing Kind, Holm is already showing there's enough elasticity in this concept to make Hendricks a welcome new anti-hero for t...
I was a big fan of last year's The Killing Kind, and have been waiting on Chris Holm's follow-up pretty much since hitting that book's final page. Red Right Hand is due out next month, and to whet our appetites a bit, Holm and his publisher, Mulholland Books, have released this digital-exclusive sho...
Started this last night and just finished it. Found this on the new shelf at the library and it sounded interesting enough to bring home. I enjoyed the action and the easy flow of the writing. I did draw some similarities to the "Dexter" series (hit man taking out other hit men) but overall I enj...

ARC from NetGalley.This was another great addition to the series, but it was not without its weaknesses. I enjoyed the overall plot, but not the execution. Sam's job this time around was to eliminate The Brethren and from the get-go this seemed awesome. It really seemed like this would be a time to ...
Dead Harvest comes to be by way of some very enthusiastic reviews of good friends, but I confess it missed me. While it started off well with an engaging character hook featuring a soul collector, by mid-book, I found myself bored by the repetitive plotting. I set it down for a week, returning only ...
