Overview

In Josh Lanyon's A Dangerous Thing, the second in his on-going series of Los Angeles-based thrillers, featuring bookseller Adrien English, a holiday trip, following directly on from the "Gay Slasher Killings" narrated in Fatal Shadows, proves far less relaxing than English anticipates. But one corpse is not enough and as the body count mounts, so does the excitement.

Author Biography: Josh Lanyon is the author of one previous Adrien English thriller, Fatal Shadows.

Colin Spencer

"Written in a terse and laconic style, this is an exciting and entertaining read."

Diva Direct

A damn good read is the consensus for this witty, tightly plotted thriller, a follow-up to the popular Fatal Shadows. If you like your detective fiction to be gay and entertaining, this is the book for you. The bookish and ill-starred Adrien English finds his quiet vacation turning into a summer of dead bodies and sex-obsessed detectives."

Scott Matthewman

"Lanyon's second book is a riveting romp, moving along at an incredible pace. Detective Jake Riordan's coming to terms with his first relationship with a man manages to be touching without being cliche-ridden.
