About this title

Review

"You could hate L.A. for the way it screws with the decent folk so deftly conveyed here, but you won't be able to put this highly recommended collection down."
--Lawrence Maddox, All Due Respect, Crime Fiction Magazine

Gary Lovisi, Editor of Hardboiled Magazine, called Free Fall "...a hell of a hard and sweaty noir from a California writer... In this new story, I feel James M. Cain would be proud! Marks told me the story came to him as he was cruising old Route 66 wondering what the end of the line might be like. Now you'll find out."
