SOUL CIRCUS is darkly atmospheric with strong characterisation and a compelling plot. 'For some time George P. Pelecanos has been the best-kept secret in crime fiction - maybe all fiction. His stories have always been powerful tales of character and survival that grip the mind and the heart.' Michael Connelly A good performance from HELL TO PAY. We converted our 6000 trade paperback sale into a hardcover one. Again sell-through was great and returns minimal.

George P. Pelecanos lives in Washington, DC with his wife and children. He also manages Circle Films, an independent production company responsible for such films as the Coen Brothers' RAISING ARIZONA, MILLER'S CROSSING and BARTON FINK.
