The Big Gold Dream is the explosive and shocking hardboiled classic that explores the shadowy underbelly of New York as a urban civil war erupts on the side streets of Harlem, pitting murderers and prostitutes against corrupt politicians and racist white detectives. Detectives Grave Digger Jones and Coffin Ed Johnson attempt to maintain some kind of order - in the neighborhood they have sworn to protect - in a world gone mad around them.

Booklist praises this novel from Edgar Award Finalist James Hime, calling it “one of the most impressive mystery debuts in years.” Sissy Fletcher, the preacher’s daughter, disappeared 10 years ago.

It is 1933, and Mikhail Bulgakov's enviable career is on the brink of being dismantled. His friend and mentor, the poet Osip Mandelstam, has been arrested, tortured, and sent into exile.

To make matters worse, Bulgakov has fallen in love with the dangerously candid Margarita.

Edgar Award nominee James Hime’s first venture into Texas crime writing was praised as “one of the most impressive debuts in years” by Booklist. His second mystery novel set in Texas, Scared Money brings back Jeremiah Spur, an ex-Ranger who’s just been recruited to work with the CIA on a special case. Meanwhile, Spur’s friend, Deputy Sheriff Clyde Thomas, investigates a drug-related murder in a usually quiet small town.

A golden Cadillac big enough to cross the ocean has been seen sailing along the streets of Harlem. A hit-and-run victim's been hit so hard she got embedded in the wall of a convent. A shootout with three heistmen dressed as cops has left an important politician in a coma - and a lot of money missing. And Grave Digger Jones and Coffin Ed Johnson are the ones who have to piece it all together.

From the start, nothing goes fright for Coffin Ed and Grave Digger Jones. They are disciplined for use of excessive force. Grave Digger is shot, and his death announced in a hoax radio bulletin. Bodies pile up faster than Coffin Ed and Grave Digger Jones can run. Yet, try as they might, they always seem to be one hot step behind the cause of all the mayhem: three million dollars' worth of heroine and a simple albino called Pinky.
