Description
Award-winning Laird Barron (*1970), considered the gray eminence of American horror, is back with a gritty thriller. "Blood is My Bread" is the first installment of a new series featuring the hero Isaiah Coleridge, the son of a Maori beauty and an American officer, who, after twenty years in the service of the Chicago mafia, is cast out and embarks on a quest to find a young Black girl. Barron has created an entirely new literary world in this series, set in the scorching present. It features mobsters, gangs, racism, the Iraq war, and dirty FBI practices. The plot, spiced with the sarcastic comments of the unforgettable protagonist, who must constantly poke at hornet's nests, is full of action... and blood.
“From time to time, a comet shines in the sky, even in the literary sky. To use this analogy for a new detective novel is quite audacious. But the book Blood is My Bread by American author Laird Barron deserves it. In the gray flood of contemporary crime literature, it truly stands out as a revelation.”
