Media Reviews
When investigative reporter Jimmy Gage receives a note from someone dubbed 'The Eggman,' claiming to have killed half a dozen people in the last month and now coming after him, the police consider it a hoax. Gage, however, takes it a bit more seriously as (with disgraced Detective January Holt) he starts a search for the cunning and elusive killer. Most of Ferrigno's novels have been optioned by Hollywood, and it is not difficult to see why. His prose is taut, his characters three-dimensional and the mastery of detail is impressive. Like his other books, Flinch contains a romantic centre inside its hard-boiled noir exterior, and the connotations for star casting are obvious.
