“Zack Taylor is back and
ready to rumble. In A Fall From Grace, he digs in like
a pit bull to exonerate a woman accused of murder and find the real
killer. The answers lie buried within small town politics, dysfunctional
family relations and crooked land deals, but finding the truth can
exact a cost. Dale Phillips delivers a powerful and ultimately haunting
sequel to his debut novel, A Memory of Grief.”
And listed at Super
E-Books, a great place to find good books,
"Zack Taylor is hot. With
anger, grief, testosterone, muscle—and booze when he lets
himself, though he tries not to. And he’s hot on a case of
suicide that his gut tells him is murder. No pro, he acts out of
some time-worn sense of honor—as Hammett might’ve said:
When a man’s friend is killed, he ought to do something.
Wounded by life, Taylor is a loner who makes friends easily, and
enemies even more easily. Beginning in the heat of Miami, he treks
north to Portland, Maine, where things get way hotter.
Dale Philips writes a clean, efficient prose and spins a yarn that’s
as gritty as any I’ve read in recent years. There’s
humor, violence, ghosts, and sex—all the good stuff that has
driven stories forever.”
