"James D.F. Hannah is the real deal ... (He) shows with this book he has no trouble holding his own against Robert B. Parker and Lawrence Block." - Dave Zeltserman, author of SMALL CRIMES and PARIAH
Homecoming queen. Cheerleader. Heroin addict.
Meadow Charles had all the promise in the world-and secrets to hide. Someone else tried to hide Meadow's secrets when they murdered her and left her body at the Parker County landfill. Five years later, the murder still reverberates through the Appalachian community.
Now the man who confessed to the murder says he didn't do it, and he needs Henry Malone to prove it.
"A tight, sharp story with brutal-and brutally funny-moments. Buckle up." - S.G. Redling, author of FLOWERTOWN and BAGGAGE
Henry and his well-armed A.A. sponsor Woody quickly find themselves drawn into a world of money and drugs, prostitutes and corrupt business deals, and one family's dark past, plus the secrets someone's still willing to murder to keep hidden.
"A wicked slice of pulpy, country noir!" - Joe Clifford, author of THE ONE THAT GOT AWAY and the Jay Porter series
"Atmospheric and genuine, James Hannah's SHE TALKS TO ANGELS packs a powerful punch." - J. Carson Black, best-selling author of THE SHOP and SPECTRE BLACK
"The dry dark wit, the terrible secrets that need to be unlocked, the action ... One of the best traditional PI series out there for fans of guys like Elvis Cole, Spenser, and even Dave Robicheaux." - Jochem van Der Steen, Son of Spade
