<p>"Donât miss the ride, youâll be in masterful hands."</p>
- Gerard Houarner, author of The Beast That Was Max series & Painfreak: Ultimate Edition,
<p>"<em>The Bloodstained Doll</em> is a twisted tale of murder and paranoia that really amps up the tension! John Everson perfectly captures the twists and shocking violence of the giallo era of potboilers! Lots of dangerous fun!"</p>
- Jonathan Maberry, NY Times bestselling author of the Joe Ledger thrillers,
<p>"Rife with twists, red herrings, and devilish doings in the dark, <em>The Bloodstained Doll</em> is a gothic giallo worthy of the masters. We can only hope Everson's exploration of the genre will continue. Highly recommended for fans of both print and film gialli!"</p>
- W.D. Gagliani, author of the Nick Lupo Series and The Judas Hit,
<p>"John Eversonâs <em>The Bloodstained Doll</em> is a pitch-perfect evocation of everything devotees of Italian giallo films from the 1970s loved about them. All the beloved tropes are present, but Everson invests them with new, vibrant life in a tale that is both modern and classic in all the best ways. These pages crackle with palpable, page-turning suspense. Highly recommended."</p>
- Bryan Smith, author of Depraved and 68 Kill,
<p><strong>Praise for <em>Five Deaths for Seven Songbirds:</em></strong></p>
<p>"I read this story with ever-increasing interest. The dynamics and tension felt reminiscent of my thriller films from the 70s and 80s, which have been appreciated by many American directors such as Quentin Tarantino. It would make a great film for lovers of the genre. <em>Ottimo intrigo</em>! Enjoy the read everyone!"</p>
