![]() ![]() Tucker had been caught and punished for his crimes but later inexplicitly disappears from prison and is never heard of again. The author dies on the same day his biography on the prolific serial killer, Tucker Ashton, is released, with the book later becoming a runaway hit. Patrick Lacey cleverly weaves several story strands into a pacey novel which wastes little time in hitting the ground running with the suicide of a true-crime writer, Charlie Williamson. If you’ve never previously read a Grindhouse Press novel, this is an excellent entry-point into their unsettling world, as the violence levels do not reach the heights of many of their other releases and gives a good flavour of the fiction they bring out. Where Stars Won’t Shine might not be as nasty as Kinfolk, but it has an involving plot, engaging characters and a haunting setting which is heavy with atmosphere. ![]() The nice folks at Grindhouse Press follow the top-notch December 2018 release of Matt Kurtz’s Kinfolkwith another strong offering. ![]()
