Zero Saints

Hardcore from beginning to end. Gabino Iglesias has always been a top tier indie author, but Zero Saints is a whole new level of crime thriller. Tense and gut-wrenching it holds your cojones in a vice for the entire novel. Filled with blood, gore and violence, yet every word is an exercise in elegance. The author digs deep into the darkness within all our hearts – our doubts, fears, the skeletons we thought we'd buried, the waking nightmares we cannot outrun – and exposes them in our reading relationship to the protagonist. Well-thought out. Perfectly paced. Realistically crafted. Just beautiful.
