“Hunsicker’s latest introduces a sympathetic hero who struggles with his own demons as much as he strives to solve the crime at hand.” —Library Journal

“Taut... complex, well-written... action-packed...” —The Dallas Morning News

“Hunsicker's story moves at a relentless pace, with all the twists and surprises his readers have come to expect.” —The Dallas Morning News

Past Praise for Harry Hunsicker:

“Great new noir....If this doesn't light you up, seek immediate medical help.” —Lee Child, bestselling author of the Jack Reacher series

“Harry Hunsicker fuses a white-knuckled thriller with a post-modern detective novel, and Crosshairs delivers the goods: Layered, intense, and rich with deadly characters. Let there be no doubt—Hunsicker is an emerging star.” —Robert Crais, bestselling author of The Two Minute Rule

“If you're looking for a new favorite author, read The Contractors....[The book] reads like a treatment for a new Quentin Tarantino film, full of quirky—and dangerous—characters, twists and turns, and enough action to fill another two or three books.” —Bookreporter
