Reviews
Praise for Proving Ground "Peter Blauner's new novel, Proving Ground , is an old-school page-turner... Taut narration, spot-on dialogue, and sharply etched action sequences make this one a must read. I couldn't put the sucker down." -Stephen King" Proving Ground , is a showstopper. A tour-de-force of smart, gutsy, relentlessly entertaining storytelling that counts as one of the finest novels I've read in the past five years. Blauner has a painter's eye for detail, a playwright's ear for dialogue, and a film director's kinetic narrative vision. All combine to create a turbo-charged reading experience. Proving Ground is a masterpiece of contemporary fiction." -Christopher Reich, New York Times best-selling author of Rules of Deception and Numbered Account, "Blauner excels with strong, realistic characters, believable police work, and smart, propulsive dialogue." - Kirkus (starred review), " First rate suspense , with a soupcon of horror in the Hannibal Lecter vein... You won't be disappointed." -- Stephen King "And just as Robles notes the empty Bacardi bottles and crushed Capri Sun juice packs littering the beach, so too does Blauner keep a tight focus on his regional setting." -- Marilyn Stasio, The New York Times Book Review "Peter Blauner has created one of the most memorable psychopaths since Hannibal Lecter." -- The Washington Post "The prose is economical and precise, the setting well drawn and the characters real enough to give you a chill the next time you cruise past a police car." -- Associated Press "Blauner excels with strong, realistic characters, believable police work, and smart, propulsive dialogue ." -- Kirkus (starred review) "An action-packed and plot twist-laden thriller. Exploring such subjects as police corruption, misogyny, and racism, this is a page-turner of the highest order ." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) " [U]nforgettable characters in an epic battle of good and evil . . ." - NY Journal of Books "Peter Blauner's bracing, suspenseful Sunrise Highway has everything you want in a thriller . . ." - Popsugar, "Blauner excels with strong, realistic characters, believable police work, and smart, propulsive dialogue." - Kirkus (starred review) "An action-packed and plot twist-laden thriller. Exploring such subjects as police corruption, misogyny, and racism, this is a page-turner of the highest order." - Publishers Weekly (starred review), " First rate suspense , with a soupcon of horror in the Hannibal Lecter vein...

Exploring such subjects as police corruption, misogyny, and racism, this is a page-turner of the highest order ." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "The murderer is well-developed and a pleasure to root against. . ." - Library Journal, " First rate suspense , with a soupcon of horror in the Hannibal Lecter vein... You won't be disappointed." -- Stephen King "And just as Robles notes the empty Bacardi bottles and crushed Capri Sun juice packs littering the beach, so too does Blauner keep a tight focus on his regional setting." -- Marilyn Stasio, The New York Times Book Review "Peter Blauner has created one of the most memorable psychopaths since Hannibal Lecter." -- The Washington Post "The prose is economical and precise, the setting well drawn and the characters real enough to give you a chill the next time you cruise past a police car." -- Associated Press "Blauner excels with strong, realistic characters, believable police work, and smart, propulsive dialogue ." -- Kirkus (starred review) "An action-packed and plot twist-laden thriller.

Synopsis
First rate suspense, with a soupcon of horror in the Hannibal Lecter vein... You won't be disappointed. --Stephen King From Peter Blauner, the writer Dennis Lehane calls one of the most consistently bracing and interesting voices in American crime literature, comes a new thriller about a lone young cop on the trail of a powerful killer determined not just to stop her, but to make her pay. In the summer of Star Wars and Son of Sam, a Long Island schoolgirl is found gruesomely murdered. A local prosecutor turns a troubled teenager known as JT from a suspect to a star witness in the case, putting away a high school football star who claimed to be innocent. Forty years later, JT has risen to chief of police, but there's a trail of a dozen dead women that reaches from Brooklyn across Long Island, along the Sunrise Highway, and it's possible that his actions actually enabled a killer. That's when Lourdes Robles, a relentless young Latina detective for the NYPD, steps in to track the serial killer. She discovers a deep and sinister web of connections between the victims and some of the most powerful political figures in the region, including JT himself. Now Lourdes not only has to catch a killer, but maybe dismantle an entire system that's protected him, possibly at the cost of her own life.|9781250117410|, "First rate suspense, with a soupcon of horror in the Hannibal Lecter vein...
