The writing is captivating. The characters are captivating. The story is captivating and disturbing in a way that won’t let you but the book down.
This week we interviewed debut author Peter Farris about his gritty crime noir novel, Last Call for the Living. It is a complex-character-driven story about an ex-con with nothing to lose, a girl who is as crazed for sex as for drugs, the bank teller lucky enough to live, but not lucky enough to be left behind and the agents on their trail who have problems of their own.
