About the Author
Sean Slater is the pseudonym for Vancouver Police Officer Sean Sommerville. As a police officer, Sommerville works in Canada's poorest slum, the Downtown East Side - an area rife with poverty, mental illness, drug use, prostitution, and gang warfare. He has investigated everything from frauds and extortions to homicides. Sommerville has written numerous columns and editorials for the city newspaper. His work has been nominated for the Rupert Hughes Prose Award, and he was the grand-prize winner of the Sunday Serial Thriller contest, which was co-written by Daniel Kalla and published in the Vancouver Province. When not patrolling the 'Skids', Sommerville is working hard on Stone Cold, the second novel in the Jacob Striker series.
Review
'The Survivor grabbed me by the throat from page one and held on until the very end. Slater's debut is a rocket-paced evocative thriller. Gritty, dark and graphic, The Survivor is at times hard to read but always harder to put down. A terrific read' Daniel Kalla, bestselling Canadian author of Pandemic, Blood Lies and Of Flesh And Blood 'The USP of this energetic debut thriller is that it's written about a Vancouver cop by a Vancouver cop ... In fact Sean Slater writes the sort of pacy superior pulp you'd expect from an author who'd never eaten a doughnut on a dull stakeout' Telegraph 'Slater has a knack for grabbing the reader's attention and making them want to keep turning the pages' beasbooknook.blogspot.com 'Fast-paced, gripping and impossible to put down, Sean Slater's debut novel, The Survivor, is an explosive, action-injected tale told by a great new talent. A fantastic read' CHRIS CARTER 'A satisfyingly authentic debut from a man who really does know about the bleak side of the human psyche... written with an unexpected gentle irony, and featuring a lead character that the author clearly likes, it's a neat, stylish thriller from a writer to watch' Daily Mail 'The USP of this energetic debut thriller is that it's written about a Vancouver cop by a Vancouver cop...In fact Sean Slater writes the sort of pacy superior pulp you'd expect from an author who'd never eaten a doughnut on a dull stakeout' Daily Telegraph
