``If you like Michael Connellys novels, you will gobble up Jonathan Moores The Dark Room.`` --James Patterson ``Channels the moody intensity of Raymond Chandlers crime fiction.``--Washington Post Gavin Cain, an SFPD homicide inspector, is at an exhumation when his phone rings. The mayor is being blackmailed and has ordered Cain back to the city; a helicopter is on its way. The casket, and Cains cold-case investigation, must wait. At City Hall, the mayor shows Cain four photographs hes received: the first, an unforgettable blonde; the second, pills and handcuffs on a nightstand; the third, the woman drinking from a flask; and last, the woman naked, unconscious, and shackled to a bed. The accompanying letter is straightforward: worse revelations will come unless the mayor takes his own life first. An ``electrifying noir thriller,``* The Dark Room tracks Cain as he hunts for the blackmailer, pitching him into the web of destruction and devotion the mayor casts in his shadow. ``With an Edgar Allan Poe feel to it, this book leaves an uncomfortable, indelible impression . . . San Francisco has never been so menacing.``--Kirkus, starred review *Booklist, starred review
