Publisher's Weekly Review
Abrasive NYPD detective Billy O'Connor, back from a tour in Afghanistan, investigates a series of gory homicides in Brooklyn's trendy neighborhoods in this psychological crime noir. "Sometimes it stinks as bad as the Gowanus [Canal]," Billy muses of his job. "If that's possible." Each crime scene triggers PTSD flashbacks for the veteran. Has something gone rotten in this borough of immigrants and hipsters-or do his hallucinations actually predict the murders? Billy's level-headed partner, Nadira Hasan, tries to ground him and get him back to proper procedural police work as the case snakes, seamlessly, into the supernatural. Levitz is a prolific writer of superhero comics (Wonder Woman, Legion of Super-Heroes) who brings his imaginative storytelling skills here to the portrayal of ordinary humans in a recognizably modern world. The intricate plot is well served by the art of Hamilton (Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451), as he blends realistic figure and architecture drawings with fantastical portrayals; his use of shadowing is excellent. Integrating Brooklyn's often brutal real-world history, this bloody tale with Lovecraftian undertones will thrill mystery and horror comic fans. (July) © Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved.
