"Ken Kuhlken writes about characters most authors wouldn't touch." Raymond Carver, author of Fires

"Ken Kuhlken's private-eye novels, although they have their roots in the noir tradition, are a unique blend of cultural history, social dynamics and hard-bitten melodrama." Robert Wade, author of Touch of Evil

"The most original voice in the detective novel, Kuhlken brings a new life to the form." Dennis Lynds, author of The Irishman's Horse
