Private eye Jim Sader returns in a hard-hitting thriller set in the dark corners of sunny southern California
“One of the best hard-boiled private-eye novels ever written.” —Sarah Weinman, The New York Times
“You’re playing with a child’s life”: The search for a kidnapped boy leads private detective (and ex-alcoholic) Jim Sader through a labyrinth of well-hidden family secrets and into the heart of an elaborate and malevolent deception. With little to go on–a tight-lipped client, an anonymous letter, a mother who is supposed to be dead–Sader must rely on his wits to find the child even as he outraces the demons that dog him. Sleep with a Slander has been called “the best hard-boiled private eye novel written by a woman—and one of the best written by anybody” (1001 Midnights: The Aficionado’s Guide to Mystery and Detective Fiction).
