Famine

The corpse of a young man is found in one of Manhattan's most exclusive neighborhoods in the trendy East Village. Though his death appears to be self-willed, a police detective nevertheless decides the man was murdered and launches a maverick investigation. As the detective plunges into the mysterious case, his own past begins to intertwine with the history of the victim. Identities blur, names change, and at every step an unidentifiable woman and her infant daughter lurk in the shadows, not just watching, but somehow pulling the detective deeper into the mystery. Exciting buzz on this talented young novelist. Famine received terrific reviews in hardcover. Paperback format is perfect for this urban Gen-X, noirish love story. This hip, downtown novel is set in New York's trendy East Village. Komarnicki has a growing reputation as a screenwriter.
