BOOKLIST loves STORM DAMAGE:  “A sleeper here, a beautiful spin on hard-boiled fiction… …simply asking questions leads (P.I. Cliff St. James) to hints of a sneaky CIA plot and occasions the kind of cleansing bloodbath that has readers feeling like they’ve wandered happily into Hammett’s Red Harvest. The author works hard to make his world a place you can almost reach out and touch.”

“Hard-edge. Frenetic. This tale is fluid, dark, and compelling. Ed Kovacs is a vivid addition to the thriller genre.” – Steve Berry, New York Times Bestselling author

“Powerful as a Category Five hurricane, STORM DAMAGE is a riveting journey into murder, politics, and greed. Kovacs writes like a master…” – Gayle Lynds, New York Times bestselling author

***Publisher’s Weekly likes Storm Damage!:  “Kovacs’s gritty debut, the first in a series set in post-Katrina New Orleans, introduces PI Cliff St. James… Cliff takes plenty of knocks, but proves as resilient as New Orleans in this action-filled crime novel.”
