Praise for The Fear Artist Voted one of Deadly Pleasures Magazine 's "Best Mystery-Crime Novels of 2012." "At the start of Edgar-finalist Hallinan's heartrending, unforgettable fifth Poke Rafferty thriller (after 2010's The Queen of Patpong), travel writer Rafferty collides with an overweight man around 65, possibly a German or American, on a wet Bangkok street. The man, whose head is oddly sunburned, manages to say a woman's name before expiring from multiple gunshots. When the cops at the scene insist the man wasn't shot, Rafferty knows he's headed for trouble. Forced to betray his best friend, Rafferty turns for help to leftover cold war spooks from the other side as he uncovers evidence that the Pentagon has resurrected the Phoenix Program, which the U.S. used in Vietnam, to counter Muslim terrorists in southern Thailand. Hallinan gives his readers, who should be prepared for gruesome torture scenes, no chance to escape from his somber conviction that what America has become by pursuing the war on terror was never what America was supposed to be." -Publishers Weekly, STARRED REVIEW "Stellar." -Library Journal, STARRED REVIEW "The volcanic American sadist is the author's best yet… Simply the best of a fine series of thrillers set in one of the world's most exotic locales." -Booklist , STARRED REVIEW "Must-read crime fiction." -Mystery Scene "[ The Fear Artist ] presents a view of Thailand's underbelly that few visitors ever see." -Contra Costa Times "Hallinan seems almost incapable of writing badly, and his Poke Rafferty series has been a personal favorite of mine from its inception. However, THE FEAR ARTIST sets an entirely new standard for the author against which his future efforts will be judged." - BookReporter "Just put Timothy Hallinan's Poke Rafferty novel The Fear Artist way high on my top 10 thrillers list. Violent, gritty, & moving." - Nancy Pearl (via Twitter) "Papa Hemingway used to say, "Write about what you know." Hallinan does a hell of a job following his advice." - Criminal Element "Absolutely the best book in the series." - Murder On Demand "If I gave stars, THE FEAR ARTIST would get ten." - Murder By Type Praise for The Queen of Patpong "Taut, offbeat and fast-moving.... Hallinan's unlikely hero shines in this sometimes funny, always engrossing and undeniably authentic story that explores a dark and fascinating side of Thailand." - Kirkus Reviews , Starred Review "Riveting, genuinely, moving, and entirely plausible.... A terrific page-turner." - Booklist , Starred Review "You won't read a better thriller this year!" -John Lescroart , New York Times bestselling author of Treasure Hunt From the Hardcover edition., Praise for The Fear Artist Voted one of Deadly Pleasures Magazine 's "Best Mystery-Crime Novels of 2012."

Simply the best of a fine series of thrillers set in one of the world's most exotic locales." --Booklist , STARRED REVIEW "Hallinan not only writes a relentless-as-the-rain paced thriller, sprinkled with an off-beat, cynical humor, but the poignant emotional sides of the characters and the intelligent and beautiful plot and storytelling soak the reader's heart to the skin. The social issues, starkly and honestly portraying the exploitation of women and children will haunt you.... This is literary fiction of the first order told in the form of an elegant and intricate thriller." --Seattle PI "Must-read crime fiction." --Mystery Scene "[ The Fear Artist ] presents a view of Thailand's underbelly that few visitors ever see." --Contra Costa Times "Hallinan seems almost incapable of writing badly, and his Poke Rafferty series has been a personal favorite of mine from its inception.

    The book was in excellent condition, as described in the listing, and was excellently packaged, arriving in unblemished condition. The shipping time was very quick. While the listing showed the book with a dust jacket, the book did not come with one. I brought this to the attention of the seller, who responded to me right away, and was satisfied with the seller's explanation. I have to say that the service was in every way outstanding.

    The book arrived swiftly packaged in a protective plastic envelope, but it was a paperback not hardcover as listed. I contacted seller and they apologized, refunded me and suggested several things to do with the book after allowing me to keep it. I have gone ahead and ordered a hardcover from the same seller. I’m a repeat customer and hope to remain so. This mixup was a first, but I’m very impressed with their prompt response and professionalism. Kudos :)
