As I lie in bed with Amanda, ignoring another late-night call from my ex, a shot rings out in the New York night and a beautiful starlet dies outside the city's most popular nightclub. This is the kind of story I was born to chase—but I never dreamed this story began over a hundred years ago.…

Excellent second novel!
Incredible and darn near unputdownable! I really enjoy the characters in the series and the new ones that pop up. Lots of action and suspense. Pinter, the author, really pulls you into Henry’s world and it stays in your mind long after the novel is finished.
Some may find the plot a little ‘cheesy’, and while I didn’t find it the most original, it’s how it played out that was the fascinating part. Like a reporter hitting the ground running, you’re the re...more

Second in a series of thrillers about a young NYC reporter with an unfortunate knack for getting caught up in violence, although said protagonist thinks enough about his past that you won't need to backtrack. This time, a string of celebrity assassinations winds up harkening back to one of the most notorious figures in American history, which requires some major suspension of disbelief (but less than is expected of, say, Dan Brown readers--an...more

This book was an awesome story. This one is the second in a series of books involving the same character, and now I am chomping at the bit to get the first one so I can get the full back story on Henry Parker.
In any case, this book took a well known American Legend and turned it inside out, which I found refreshing. Not many authors would have dared to, even in fiction, mess with an American Legend lik that. A must read!

I was a bit disappointed with this one. Had such high hopes after reading my last Jason Pinter, which was the first in this series. Maybe it was because this second book was full of history I have no interest in, but I just didn't like it much. I did manage to get through it but it leaves me less than excited to pick up the third in the series. We will see.

mystery & suspense lovers
I read Jason's book "The Mark" and was hooked on this new author. "The Guilty" is fast-paced, very suspenseful and extremely hard to put down. Henry is a character that you think about long after you have read the last page.

So-so plot and mediocre writing--with lots of pretentious sentence fragments and characters named Jack. But it moves fast.

I know, it's a series, but I love mark Pinter's writing. I wish he'd hurry up and write more.
