Description
"The crime at the heart of the story is brutal, senseless, sensational...and [the novel is] more than memorable--it's haunting."
           --David Bradley, PEN/Faulkner Award-winning author of The Chaneysville Incident
Â
"Clever, twisted and ultimately insightful, Jeff Cohen's The Killing of Mindi Quintana upends legality and redefines justice--a dazzling debut novel."
      --Burl Barer, Edgar Award-winning author of Body Count and Murder in the Family

A killer with a book... A lawyer pushed too far... Freddy Builder kills Mindi Quintana and is writing the book about their relationship everybody wants--it's a lying rewrite of her life and of their miserably thin involvement. Excerpts appearing to acclaim, a televised trial is in the offing, and a new celebrity killer takes the stage--the iconic poet-murderer, a jailhouse literary sensation. Freddy's straight arrow lawyer plays his sworn role as advocate; but as Freddy builds his fame with the bones of his victim, he finds himself dreaming of justice. And of comeuppance. For a killer with a book. For fame through the backdoor of murder.
