Book Overview: KING SUCKERMAN was shortlisted for the CWA Gold Dagger 'For some time George P. Pelecanos has been the best kept secret in crime fiction - maybe all fiction.' Michael Connelly An author with a growing cult following, ripe to burst into the mainstream of American crime. 'Pelecanos gets better with each book. His understanding of his characters, and his compassion for even the most vicious, bring depth and warmth to an otherwise bleak story of life and death in Washington's black ghettos. This is crime writing of great quality.' TELEGRAPH
