Dark, debauched, and disturbing, Harry Kenmare’s world is a high-octane thrill ride for hard-core crime fiction addicts. But you’ll need to buckle up and bite down. Only readers with cast-iron fortitude need apply! Available now: ebook, POD, and paperbacks from me. Cheers, ABP

Can't resist posting this glorious example of quality control! Our apartment building is undergoing refurbishment of all the lifts, costing well over $1M. I can only hope that the attention to detail when it comes to the safety and electrical aspects is far superior to that applied to the signage!!! And to think, someone designed this, someone made it, someone installed it, someone checked it all before the lift could operate. At least 4 failure points. Who's getting out at the LOOBBY???

Exactly the anti-hero we wanted, and the monster we needed. Evil will know fear, and you can see why through October 31st for $0.99 on Kindle! "If you dig revenge thrillers like Man on Fire, The Equalizer, Taken, and Sicario, READ THIS BOOK!" @SledgevsBooks "If Cinemax were still making shows like Banshee or Strike Back, this would be a perfect fit." @JonDaviesWriter "Aside from master storytelling, Mr Engel can sure as hell draw memorable characters..." @ABPattersonAuth #thrillers #vigilantejustice #PunisherVibes #Revenge #writerscommunity #booksale #savethechildren #antitrafficking

An excellent chat. And it’s a superb book.
Please use the link below for the launch my novella, Waiting for LeClerc, on @ankskumar1’s podcast. We’ll talk about the importance of documenting old Toronto, the 86-87 @MapleLeafs, how the new puritanism leads to declining literacy, and the book itself. youtube.com/watch?v=voK5n-Es…
