Chaos and murder arrive in Charlie Parker's hometown of Portland, Maine, with two connected crimes in the latest novel in #1 nationally bestselling author John Connolly's “flawless and highly suspenseful” (PopSugar) series.From “a master of the macabre” (RT Book Reviews), private investigator Charlie Parker is unwittingly drawn into a world of vengeance. New York Times bestselling author John Connolly pits Parker against two separate—but vitally connected—investigations, which prove to be among the most complicated of his entire career. In The Sisters Strange, criminal Raum Buker arrives in Portland, only for a shocking act of theft to threaten not only his own existence but those of his former lovers—the enigmatic sisters Strange. And in the title novel, The Furies, Parker must protect two women under threat as Portland shuts down in the face of a global pandemic. Unbeknownst to him, however, these clients are more capable of taking care of themselves than anyone could have imagined.

The Furies

This is actually two short novels. The first, 'The Sisters Strange'; was published online during the covid shutdown in raw form. It was a good distraction at the time. Now in an updated form the story improved quite a bit. The second story, 'The Furies'; was pretty good. It's always a bonus to see Louis and Angel. John Connolly is by far my favorite author since I discovered the Charlie Parker books a few years ago. I only wish there was more of the supernatural mixed in, I think that's when the books really kick in. There was some of that in these stories, but it was a little too subtle this time. I really miss characters like 'The Collector'. Let's hope the next novel takes my breath away like some of the earlier ones did.

Excellent

This is a favorite series of mine. This installment which consisted of two novellas was fantastic. I have to say that the second drew me in more. Many thanks to Atria and to NetGalley for providing me with a galley in exchange for my honest opinion.

Just excellent

The Furies is the twentieth entry in the always excellent Charlie Parker series. This book is actually a collection of two novellas, The Sisters Strange and The Furies. Both are related as a decrepit apartment building in Portland, a home for ex cons (and maybe ghosts), figures prominently in both stories. As is usual for the series, the writing is outstanding, and the plot well constructed. The Sisters Strange bad guy is Kepler, who is eerily like The Collector from the earlier novels. One of the other baddies has just started to dabble in the occult, and stole a rare coin that may have occult connections. The Furies is interesting as Parker is dealing with two cases at the same time, and a ghost lurks in the background. Another excellent entry in the Charlie Parker novels, one of my favorite series of all time.
