Thriller
The powerful new novel by bestselling author R.J. Ellory is
a story that asks whether it's truly possible to be born
under a bad sign. Orphaned by an act of senseless violence that took their
mother from them, half-brothers Clarence Luckman and Elliott
Danziger have been raised in state institutions, unaware of
any world beyond its walls. But their lives take a sudden
turn when they are seized as hostages by a convicted killer
en route to death row. Earl Sheridan is a psychopath of the worst kind, and as he
and his two hostages set off on a frenetic path through
California down to Texas, Clarence and Elliot must come to
terms with the ever-growing tide of violence in their wake.
It’s a path that will force them to make a choice about
their lives, and their relationship to each other—and it
will change their lives forever. Set in the 1960s, Bad Signs is a tale of the
darkness within all of us, the inherent hope for salvation,
and the ultimate consequences of evil. Praised by Alan Furst
as a “uniquely gifted, passionate, and powerful writer,”
R.J. Ellory once again delivers a thriller as beautiful as
it is riveting, returning to the haunting ground of his
international bestseller A Quiet Belief in Angels.
