For Kiss Them Good-bye

"Kiss Them Good-bye latches on to you like a pitbull and won't let go. Eastburn has a truly diabolical mind — and the structure of this book funnels you to death and horror with the frightening inevitability of a physical law. Get this book — Eastburn first editions are a great investment."
                         — D. Keith Mano, author of Topless

"Joseph Eastburn's debut is like the first cut of a confident surgeon; he slices through the skin, nerve endings, and subcutaneous fat... right to the heart of a grim but highly involving story."
                         — Graham Masterton

"The territory of Joseph Eastburn's fine and shuddery first novel is that most dreadful period of anybody's life: school days, a time of bullies, bores, and bad food. Small wonder murder will stalk the campus. Eastburn's tight, spare prose gets us horribly to the point of all this. And along

the way, we make the acquaintance of a remarkable detective, Nick Fowler, who I hope will become a friend of mine over the years in many more books written by his creator."
                         — Thomas Adcock, author of Dark Maze
                            and the forthcoming Drown All the Dogs

"Kiss Them Good-bye, a striking debut and a trans-genre triumph. Complex, engrossing, with a distinctive narrative voice. ."
                         — Andrew Vachss, author of Sacrifice, Blossom,
                            and Hard Candy
