“As in the best noir there is a building sense of dread in The Wrecking Game. Violence is coming and it will be bad.” #CrimeFiction

“In Canada, sales of books by Canadian authors represents less than 15 per cent of total book sales. The average income of writers from writing alone is firmly below the poverty line.” A good reminder that investing in Canadian books & writers is investing in Canada. www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

Bookstores don't sell books. People do and so does word of mouth. Here's one early reader of THE WRECKING GAME: you can order your copy from ReBoundPress.com. If it wasn't a great book, I wouldn't have published it!
