Too Many Bullets

Praise

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


Terrific!—Peterborough Telegraph Review




“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


Too Many Bullets dramatizes the fight between Nathan Heller’s romanticism with his hard boiled cynicism… Still, whether, Lancelot or Quixote, this tarnished knight proves to be one of the best on his quests for justice.

– Deadly Pleasures


‘Extremely well researched…seamlessly weaves in historical details and personalities.’
– Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine
