The Night Market

Zusatztext Praise for The Night Market   Named an Exciting Mystery/Thriller of Winter 2018 by Bookish   Named an iBooks Most Anticipated Mystery/Thriller of Winter 2018   Named a Best Mystery of 2018 by Maxim Jakuboswki, CrimeTime    “A grim and gripping tale of well-earned paranoia…Moore, an attorney, uses his tight-lipped prose to fine effect… The book’s tone is Chandleresque, the conspiracy worrying Carver and Jenner expands to Pynchonean proportions, and the physical ick they encounter might have oozed out of a Cronenberg movie. But on the whole, I’ll wager, ‘The Night Market’ and its predecessors, ‘The Poison Artist’ and ‘The Dark Room,’ are like nothing you’ve ever read. In his acknowledgments, Moore sums up the novels as ‘a three-panel painting of San Francisco.’ As done, he might have added, by Hieronymus Bosch.” — Washington Post   " Are you one of the many who have cleared their Netflix queue of good television crime drama? Still trying to scratch that sci-fi itch as you wait for 'Westworld' to return? Well, Jonathan Moore’s latest thriller The Night Market will satiate both desires and satisfy both itches immediately...It's “Miami Vice” meets “The Matrix,” and George Orwell is hosting the party. What keeps The Night Market chugging along are those Crockett and Tubbs moments between Carver and Jenner. Mr. Moore’s handling of the partnership exemplifies the chemistry that you’d expect from two battle-scarred vets. The chapters that revolve around their relationship are ones that you won’t want to end...The reader is invested in every little moment of Carver’s detective work. Mr. Moore does such smooth work when describing Ross’ deductive mind that you buy that he's been on the force as long as his five years from mandatory retirement indicates. His self-confidence along with how he handles himself in every situation creates a protagonist one can easily get behind...In between the melding of sci-fi and crime noir, the glue that holds it all together is the engaging relationship between Carter and Mia. Their budding romance isn't forced or mushy, but is developed very organically throughout the book. It never interferes with the looming mystery and helps to cultivate more questions." — Pittsburgh Post-Gazette    "As upsetting and revealing a book as you are likely to read in this or any year...Mystery and thriller readers will find much to love here, but fans of science fiction also should embrace this incredible work." — Bookreporter.com    "If you’re looking for a good book to curl up with and lull you to sleep, don’t read Jonathan Moore’s The Night Marke t—it’ll keep you awake all night... In the vein of stories by Blake Crouch or China Mieville, The Night Market completes what Moore calls a 'three-panel painting of San Francisco—a single work, loosely connected.' Reading the other books in Moore’s series— The Poison Artist and The Dark Room— isn’t necessary, but once you’ve read this one, you’ll be compelled to seek them out anyway. Just be prepared to lose some sleep while reading them." — Bookpage    "In THE NIGHT MARKET, Jonathan Moore is masterful at sustaining cutting-edge suspense. The undertones of conspiracy and speculative science fiction blend perfectly with that suspense to make this a phenomenal thriller." — FreshFiction.com    "A sharp and scary near-future thril Informationen zum Autor JONATHAN MOORE lives in Hawaii with his wife and son, and is the author of five books. Before completing law school in New Orleans, he was an English teacher, a bar owner, a raft guide, a counselor at a Texas wilderness camp for juvenile delinquents, and an investigator for a criminal defense attorney in Washington, D.C.
