Third Rail: An Eddy Harkness Novel
"Already compelling plot-wise, Third Rail also glows with the kind of sawdust-dry humor regarding Beantown, cops, and the darkest of urban underbellies that you might find at 3 a.m. in the back booth of a backstreet bar… With its gaggle of crazy-yet-riveting characters, its spare approach and its unflagging action, Third Rail, the first in a promised series of Eddy Harkness novels, adds yet another striking feather to Fitch’s impressively-crowded cap." –The Boston Globe"Terrific debut...impressive economy and stylish, sophisticated prose...Readers will want to see more of Flynn’s gritty Boston—and Eddy Harkness." --Publishers Weekly, boxed and starred"The start to a successful crime writing career..."– Library Journal"Third Rail gets off to a ripping start and never lets off the gas. Rory Flynn is a suspense writer to watch." —Jess Walter, author of the bestselling Beautiful Ruins“THIRD RAIL is an adrenaline-soaked tale of political corruption and personal redemption that never lets up.  Eddy Harkness, the self-destructive Massachusetts narcotics detective at the novel’s center, is a worthy successor to Robert B. Parker’s Jesse Stone.” --Sean Chercover,  author of the bestselling The Trinity Game
