The Killer Detective Novelist

In Mark Damon Puckett's chillingly mysterious third book The Killer Detective Novelist we re-enter the absurdist worlds we have read about in his first two remarkable works of fiction The Reclusives and YOU with The Ill-usives.In Puckett's adroit new literary novel a schizophrenic detective Mack Harris befriends a novelist across the hall in his apartment building in Manhattan. After a series of supposed deaths Mack has to figure out why his reality has been so subverted. Who is Chloe? Who is the Little Man Crunch? In this writer's labyrinth of words never seeming what they are Mack begins to develop an actual life outside the character he is in the book. And the question becomes: who is in control here character or novelist? Who really is Mack? For that matter who is Mark Damon Puckett?
