Tormented and racked with guilt over the brutal slaying of his wife and daughter, Charlie Parker, ex-cop with the NYPD, agrees to track down a missing girl. It is a search that will lead him into an abyss of evil. At the same time, he is warned by an old black woman in Louisiana that 'The Travelling Man' is about to strike again. Multiple strands converge with a horrific confrontation in which hunter and hunted are intimately connected by guilt.
Buy it and be scared The Times A genuine, gripping page-turner which shreds the nerves and is certain to be one of the thrillers of 1999. Mike Ripley, Crime Critic of the Daily Telegraph An ambitious, moral, disturbing tale with a stunning climax. Marcel Berlins, The Times Fantastic - he has raised the standard of modern crime writing J Wallis Martin Painstaking research, superb characterisation, and an ability to tell a story that's chilling and thought provoking make this a terrific thriller Mirror A stunning debut ... EVERY DEAD THING ensnares us in its very first pages and speeds us through a harrowing plot to a riveting climax. I'm already impatient for Bird's next appearance. Jeffery Deaver
John Connolly is the first non-American writer to win the US Shamus award and the first Irish writer to win an Edgar award. His debut - EVERY DEAD THING - introduced the character of Private Investigator Charlie Parker, and swiftly launched him right into the front rank of thriller writers. All his subsequent novels have been Sunday Times bestsellers. Before becoming a novelist, he spent five years working as a journalist for The Irish Times, to which he continues to contribute. In 2007 he was awarded the Irish Post Award for Literature. BOOKS TO DIE FOR, which he edited with Declan Burke, was the winner of the 2013 Anthony, Agatha and Macavity awards for Best Non-Fiction work.
