His new novel is A Killer's Essence.
Zeltserman's reply to my recent query about what he has been reading:
I just finished Richard Stark's The Seventh. This is a classic crime novel where a heist gets pulled off successfully and then everything that can go wrong afterwards goes wrong. The title "The Seventh" comes from the book being Stark's (Donald Westlake's) seventh Parker novel, and that each of the seven members of the crew for the heist are going to split one seventh of the take, but the title also serves as a punchline at the end. Stark/Westlake wrote many great crime novels in the Parker series, but since there were so many of these books (26 of them) we tend to group them all together as a great series as opposed to singling out some of the books as great crime novels, which is a shame.Visit Dave Zeltserman's website and blog.
