Thin Air

Praise for the Yellowthread Street series:

'Marshall has the rare gift of juggling scary suspense and wild humor and making them both work' 

'Marshall’s style – blending the hilarious, the surreal, and the poignant – remains inimitable and not easily resisted' 

'Marshall has few peers as an author who melds the wildest comedy and tragedy in narratives of nonstop action' 

'Marshall is building a growing, iconoclastic body of work that mixes weird fantasy [and] wayward characterization . . . to produce a subtle, charged, atmospheric, lush fiction hybrid sure to satisfy those with a taste for mysteries on the far edges' 

'Despite the wild humor, Marshall’s stories contain excellent police procedure, real suspense, and fine irony . . . incessantly scary' 

'Among the best police procedural series on the market' 

'As an inspired poet of the bizarre, [Marshall] orchestrates underlying insanity into an apocalyptic vision of the future' 

'Marshall’s novels feature seemingly supernatural events that turn out to have logical, if not precisely rational, origins. He has savage fun with police procedure' 

'Nobody rivals Marshall’s ability to expose the links between comic hysteria and the most mundane human foibles, from greed to cowardice to simple funk' 

'Moves at the speed of a bullet; don’t read it aloud or you’ll run out of breath'
