The Lost Coast

an essay called Personal Safety Tips from Assassin John Rain, which includes information that will be at least as valuable to civilians as it has been to Rain.
    “Rain’s combination of quirks and proficiency is the stuff great characters are made of.”
—Entertainment Weekly
    “Eisler combines the insouciance of Ian Fleming, the realistic detail of Tom Clancy, the ennui of Graham Greene and the prose power of John le Carré.”

be the monkey
a conversation between
j.a. konrath and barry eisler
    Sure, the advent of digital books is the most significant development in publishing since Gutenberg. But what does digital mean really, for agents, publishers, and most of all, for authors? What will the industry look like tomorrow, and what should authors be doing to properly position themselves today?
    Examining the history and mechanics of the publishing industry as it exists today, the way the digital revolution reflects recent events in Egypt and the Maghreb, and a completely inappropriate YouTube video featuring a randy monkey and an unlucky frog, bestselling authors (and friends) J.A. Konrath and Barry Eisler show in this 35,000 word online discussion that digital isn’t just the future, it’s right now.
    Konrath, a pioneer in self-publishing, is now making over a half-million dollars a year through his self-published books, and Eisler just turned down a half-million dollar deal from one of the Big 6 NYC publishers to self-publish his latest novel. To find out why and what it all means for you, pick up your copy today.

a thriller
by blake crouch and j. a. konrath
    In her twenty-five-year career with the Chicago police department, Lt. Jacqueline “Jack” Daniels has seen the worst of humanity. She’s lost loved ones and narrowly escaped death on countless occasions—and she has the nightmares to prove it. Jack is the best the Chicago PD has to offer, and she has brought some of the city’s most notorious criminals to their knees. All, that is, but one…
    Luther Kite is evil incarnate. Depraved and inhumane, he takes life for the sheer pleasure of watching his terrified victims die. He is a monster among monsters, taunting and frustrating law enforcement every bloody step of the way. But when the kills become too easy, he sets his sight on the one victim who can offer him a true challenge, the only woman who is a match for his extraordinary skill: Jack Daniels. And when it comes to killing Daniels, only Kite’s very best work will do.
    Fast-paced, suspenseful, and darkly comic,
Stirred
