A novel by

John Shannon

"The Concrete River is my kind of L.A. novel - hard as nails with a soft spot in the middle... a tough and engaging story."
Michael Connelly


 

First Jack Liffey lost his job. Then he lost his wife and daughter. All he has left is the unerring ability to track down missing children. Now heÆs about to enter the sun-baked urban nightmare of Los Angeles where nothing is what it seems. Jack Liffey is about to journey down the Concrete River.

An all-new mystery series from a highly acclaimed author who has been compared to Raymond Chandler and Graham Greene
Shannon received raves from New York Times Book Review, Los Angeles Times, and Sunday Times (London)
Like Graham Greeneùand there are other admirable resemblancesù[Shannon] is an explorer of that shadowy area in which, as spurs to positive action, abstract idealism and personal psychology merge. -Sunday Times (London)
