Nathan Heller is the perfect private eye.—New York Daily News Collins has an outwardly artless style that conceals a great deal of art. —New York Times A unique private eye series with a believable, enduring hard-boiled hero.—Los Angeles Times The master of true-crime fiction. —Chicago Magazine Collins has not only devised an original take on what may well be the most-written-about crime in history but also made Heller's role in the case plausible.—Publishers Weekly on Target Lancer Target Lancer brings us a different, fact-based assassination scenario, eerily paralleling the Dealey Plaza nightmare. —Kirkus Reviews on Target Lancer Collins spins a fascinating tale with appearances by Jack Ruby, Jimmy Hoffa, and Bobby Kennedy. Gripping from the get-go, this will satisfy both Heller fans and assassination wonks ever eager for a new spin on the story. —Booklist on Target Lancer “Another great addition to the Nate Heller legacy. It gets my highest recommendation” – Craig Zablo “A compelling fictional narrative, created from a meticulously researched examination of every conspiracy theory.” – Reviewingtheevidence.com “Too Many Bullets is both sad and thought provoking; a testimony to the one inescapable fact, we live in an imperfect world.” – Ron Fortier
