Praise for The Tower of Songs
“Chilling… an adventure spaced around disquisitions on the decline of civilization (especially the American part), the miseries and pleasures of alcohol and oxy addiction, and the otherworldliness of the superrich.”
—Booklist
"This one has sleeper-hit written all over it. Fast-paced and well-plotted, Barrett’s thriller is one of the most underrated books set to come out this month."
—The Real Book Spy
“Suspenseful…Duck narrates with a voice right out of classic hardboiled noir, complete with existential ruminations on his self-destructive nature.”
—Publishers Weekly
“Pointed and polished… a tale that would make Hammett or Chandler proud. The Tower of Songs is hard-boiled crime writing par excellence cut from the cloth of Lawrence Block, Andrew Vachss, with just a touch of Walter Mosely tossed in for good measure. Superb in all respects.”
—The Providence Journal
Praise for the Duck Darley Mysteries
AGAINST NATURE
“[A] well-crafted story with a strong and pleasing narrative style that deftly delivers on plot. A satisfying read, and not just for thriller aficionados.”
— Booktrib
UNDER WATER
2018 Shamus Award Nominee - Best First PI Novel
"Now and again a debut novel comes along that blows you out of the water. The book sings in its sheer narrative momentum."
— Ken Bruen, author of the Jack Taylor Series
"Casey Barrett should find himself in the big pool of crime writers with this deftly conceived, crisply written debut."
— New York Times bestselling author Andrew Gross
“Deliciously lascivious and violent, Under Water’s Vicodin‑fueled hero is impossible not to cheer on. The pull of his dark world will keep readers captivated to the last page.”
— Kyle Mills, New York Times bestselling author of Order to Kill
“This one has it all: mystery, suspense, secrets, and a longing for new adventure. It should be mandatory reading for all thriller aficionados.”
— New York Times bestselling author Steve Berry
“Barrett has created a series character in Duck Darley that rivals any detective or PI out there today: a bourbon‑drinking, fringe‑living antihero you'll find yourself rooting for despite his many flaws. I'm addicted . . . “
— USA Today bestselling author Charlie Donlea
“Olympic swimmer Barrett dives into the disturbing side of competitive sport in his savage thriller debut.”
