Fierce and funny...with a light touch that masks Narvaez's biting social commentary." --Reed Farrel Coleman, <em>New York Times</em> bestselling author of <em>What You Break</em><br /> <br /> "[Narvaez] has one of the most compelling writing styles I've come across in years." --Lawrence Kelter, author of <em>Back to Brooklyn</em><br /> <br /> "<em>Hipster Death Rattle</em> is a debut bursting with verve and personality, loaded with memorable characters and a clear, distinctive voice--courtesy of Richie Narvaez's knack for sly wit and a crackling plot. A love letter to a forgotten slice of New York that manages to also evoke classic mystery novels of years past, <em>Hipster Death Rattle</em> is both of the moment and evergreen. Not an easy feat, but Narvaez does it with panache. I couldn't put this book down." --Alex Segura, author of <em>Blackout</em> and <em>Dangerous Ends</em><br /> <br /> "Edgy and wildly entertaining, with a colorful cast of characters and a sweep reminiscent of Tom Wolfe, <em>Hipster Death Rattle</em> is the slasher novel you need in your life right now." --Michele Campbell, international bestselling author of <em>It's Always the Husband</em><br /> <br /> "Narvaez has some brutal points to make about gentrification...that give the text a crackling fission you don't find in a typical mystery." --<em>Mystery Tribune</em></p>
