Praise for Freedom Drop.

“An impressive debut…Silverman capably captures the feel of his setting en route to a satisfying conclusion. A sequel is warranted.” Publisher’s Weekly

“Brian Silverman’s Freedom Drop is an exciting and welcome new addition to the crime writing pantheon”  S.A. Cosby, New York Times best selling author of ALL SINNER’S BLEED.”

“Silverman had me at the Caribbean setting, and held me with his fully human characters — of both good and bad natures — and their situation. A welcome addition to the crime-writing world!” SJ Rozan, Edgar-winning author of THE MURDER of Mr. MA.

“A mystery steeped in authentic Caribbean atmosphere. Silverman knows
his territory, as does his hero, an ex-Marine-turned-sleuth who
discovers that, even in paradise, things aren’t always what they
seem.” Wallace Stroby, author of HEAVEN’S A LIE and SOME DIE NAMELESS.

“Silverman’s FREEDOM DROP, a buddy book, a whodunit, and a family drama is mystery magic.” Reed Farrel Coleman, New York Times bestselling author.

Advance Praise for Calypso Blue.

“Calypso Blue goes down smooth as a premium Caribbean lager. A heartfelt, throwback mystery reminiscent of John D. MacDonald and Robert Parker, this is crime fiction at its finest.”

Eli Cranor, Edgar-winning author of Don’t Know Tough and Mississippi Blue 42.

“Len Buonfiglio enjoys the ex-pat life in sun-drenched St. Pierre running a bar and staying out of trouble. But trouble finds him and that’s a damn good thing for readers. Calypso Blue is the next best thing to booking a ticket for a Caribbean vacation.”

James R. Benn, author of the Billy Boyle WWII Mysteries.

“In Brian Silverman’s evocative mystery, CALYPSO BLUE, transplanted New Yorker Len Buonfiglio gets embroiled in some dangerous business involving friends, island ‘royalty,’ and murder. An emotionally gripping story that masterfully transports you to a Caribbean island. After reading this one, I guarantee you’ll want to turn up the calypso music and mix yourself a rum punch!”

Alan Orloff, Anthony, Agatha, Derringer, and Thriller Award-Winning author of LATE CHECKOUT

Calypso Blue is addictive, smart, and peopled with unforgettable characters. This book grabs hold and won’t let go.”

Peggy Townsend, author of The Beautiful and the Wild.

“Paradise never felt so seedy. Silverman gives us murder, blackmail, kidnapping, and colorful characters to keep us guessing. A knockout from a single rum punch!”

Fabian Nicieza, Edgar-nominated author of Suburban Dicks and co-creator of Deadpool

Calypso Blue had me turning pages into the night. Brian Silverman’s latest novel is a perfect blend of atmosphere and action, of riptide and retribution.”

Janet Skeslein Charles, New York Times bestselling author of The Paris Library.
