Nick Crane

Created by Patrick H. Moore

More Ludlum and Flynn than Hammett and Chandler, perhaps (although there ‘s a fair amount of Spillane in the mix), Patrick H. Moore still manages to delivers plenty of tough guy bravado and explosive action in this politically charged trilogy, as it follows seasoned Los Angeles private eye NICK CRANE going up against a powerful cabal of wealthy right wing fascist nuts jobs intent on recreating the United States in their own image.

The group, known as the Principals, would like Nick to join them– but will settle for killing him.

UNDER OATH

  • “Moore skillfully delivers in the rat-a-tat, take-no-prisoner style of Spillane and Hammett, daring you to turn the page and see what happens next.”
    — Charles Salzberg on 27 Days
  • “Patrick H. Moore has written a book to savor––vivid characters and crackling, high-voltage dialogue… Moore is a master of poetic detail that captures the era’s howling rage while creating a dark and menacing mood.”
    — John Nardizzi on Rogues & Patriots
