The open-and-shut case of the Fatal Flapper just won't stay closed in this thrilling and immersive 1920s-era murder mystery--the third instalment in the Raincoast Noir series.

Gray brilliantly returns us to his wonderfully vivid, sinuously imagined Vancouver, this time six months before the Crash. Superb. --William Gibson, author of Neuromancer

Miss Dora Decker doesn't look like the sort of young woman capable of stabbing her employer, stockbroker Ralph M. Tucker, twenty-five times with her high-heeled shoe; yet, thanks to a slow news day, she has become internationally famous as the Fatal Flapper, and the police are only too happy to make the arrest.

Meanwhile, Ed McCurdy, former muckraking journalist, has traded his typewriter for a career reading radio news as Mr. Good-Evening, Canada's first "radio personality." As a celebrity he draws resentment and paranoia from far and near, and he worries that the next murder victim will be himself.

Inspector Calvin Hook scours the wet, boozy streets of gritty 1920s Vancouver, piecing together a mystery that somehow connects Al Capone, Winston Churchill and Brother Osiris, the leader of a mystical cult on DeCourcy Island.

Mr. Good-Evening joins The White Angel and Vile Spirits as the third in a trilogy Gray calls Raincoast Noir.
