Title: Black Hornet
Subtitle: A Lew Griffin Mystery
Author: James Sallis
Narrator: G. Valmont Thomas

Language: English
Release date: 12-11-08
Publisher: Blackstone Audio, Inc.
Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 3 votes
Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Historical
Publisher's Summary:
His unlikely allies include a crusading black journalist, a longtime supplier of mercenary arms and troops, and bail bondsman Frankie DeNoux. Yet it is the character of Lew Griffin that takes center stage, as in each of Sallis's highly praised books. He is by now, in this prequel, well on the way to becoming what he will be; violent, kind, contradictory, alcoholic. Both naive and wise, he is a man cursed by unspeakable demons, yet seemingly encircled by redemptive angels awaiting an opening.
Critic Reviews:
"[A] grim, utterly absorbing novel.... Sallis's New Orleans sparkles gaudily...." (Publishers Weekly).
"Lew Griffin is the real thing, a cynic out of Celine or the Hemingway of In Our Time....This is powerful stuff..."(Booklist).
"[A] vivid, focused portrayal of crime and the underlying racial tensions that can accompany it." (Library Journal).
