«The Night Gardner» is as fine an example of crime fiction as one is likely to find. But to pigeonhole this book in even that well-respected genre is to do Pelecanos an injustice. The richness of color and detail, the power and pacing of the narrative, and the story's emotional depth place Pelecanos squarely in the company of John Le Carre, Richard Price, and a handful of others whose skill transcends the confines of genre. Pelecanos has produced a crime novel that rewards readers with an experience that satisfies on a level not limited to mere entertainment.»

On a hot summer afternoon in 1972, three teenagers drove into an unfamiliar neighborhood and six lives were altered forever. Thirty five years later, one survivor of that day reaches out to another, opening a door that could lead to salvation. But another survivor is now out of prison, looking for reparation in any form he can find it. THE TURNAROUND takes us on a journey from the rock-and-soul streets of the '70s to the changing neighborhoods of D.C. today, from the diners and auto garages of the city to the inside of Walter Reed Army Medical Hospital, where wounded men and women have returned to the world in a time of war. A novel of fathers and sons, wives and husbands, loss, victory and violent redemption, THE TURNAROUND is another compelling, highly charged novel from George Pelecanos, the best crime novelist in America.
