"THE DEVIL IN HER WAY is not only Bill Loehfelm's best book yet, but it may just the best mystery novel since James Lee Burke's THE TIN ROOF BLOWDOWN to have come out of post-Katrina New Orleans. I can offer no higher praise than to say that I finished it, and wanted to read more. A gem."
- John Connolly, best-selling author of WRATH OF ANGELS and BURNING SOUL

Look for Bill's first New Orleans-set novel, THE DEVIL IN HER WAY, the next in the Maureen Coughlin series, in April 2013 from Sarah Crichton Books/FSG.

Bill is the author of, most recently, THE DEVIL SHE KNOWS (2011), from Sarah Crichton Books/FSG, Now out as a Picador paperback. Bill's other novels are FRESH KILLS (2008), which won an Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award, and BLOODROOT (...more

MY BOOK, THE MOVIE: Bill Loehfelm's "The Devil in Her Way":

It’s always a fun game to play, who would you cast if… My favorite for Maureen Coughlin, a small cop with a big brain and a bigger ambitions, came as a surprise.

Really enjoyed it. The Magill character and his family get more and more intriguing with each book. Couple of great emotional cliffhangers. Reminds me very much of another series I love, the Benjamin Black "Quirke" books. Love the way Mosley presents...more

Bill Loehfelm added Donnybrook: A Novel by Frank Bill	Rate this book Clear rating 1 of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars
Absolutely friggin' relentless. Amid the raging bloodsport, Bill weaves in some fine, thoughtful prose. Plenty of soul to go with the sound and the fury. You may think you have, but you haven't read anything like it.

Whip-smart, diabolical fun - with ideas that run deeper than you think and images that leave you shivering for days. Loved it.
