Gilda Carr's 'tiny mysteries' pack a giant punch." - David Morrell, New York Times bestselling author of Murder as a Fine Art, on Westside "A fascinating, delightfully twisty mystery. Westside crosses prohibition-era New York with the dark strangeness of Neverwhere. Fierce young detective Gilda Carr makes you believe that small mysteries hold the answers to everything." - Erika Swyler, bestselling author of The Book of Speculation and Light from Other Stars, on Westside "An addictively readable fusion of mystery, dark fantasy, alternate history, and existential horror. . . . It's like a literary shot of Prohibition-era rotgut moonshine--bracing, quite possibly hallucination-inducing, and unlike anything you've ever experienced before. . . . The illegitimate love child of Algernon Blackwood and Raymond Chandler." - Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
