Publisher and industry reviews

UK Kirkus review

Perfectly capturing the '70s vibe of cars, clothes, language films, and above all music, King Suckerman is the salutary story of a bunch of naughty boys getting involved in a coke deal in Washington DC on Bicentennial weekend who fall foul of a salt-and-pepper team bent on vengeance that ends with more blood-letting than a visit to the local abattoir. This novel is so bad it's good, and promotes Pelecanos into the first rank of contemporary American crime writers. (Kirkus UK)
