Welcome to the New York you've always feared existed. . . A world of shamblers, hustlers and undead fixers, where beneath the surface of the city that doesn't sleep, every player has a hidden agenda — the sort that can get a guy killed.
Unless he's already dead.
'An incredible book. . . the horror debut of a writer who's equally at home on the wider shores of crime, noir and comedy fiction. You might think blending all those genres would be a clumsy disaster, but Charlie Huston has written a book that is the most horrific and the most hilarious novel to hit the bookshelves in a long time' — SFX
'Laced with explicit violence and neat characterisation, Already Dead skilfully interweaves a hidden vampire Manhattan with the city we think we know in a pacy, gripping read' — The Guardian
'Brutal, stylishly noir thriller. . . a contemporary edge' — The Times
'Great fun and an addictive read. . . a wonderfully vicious, noirer than noir tale' — Waterstones.com
'As sharply dialogued as a Tarantino movie . . . excellent' — Interzone
'Charlie Huston is the real deal' — Peter Straub
'An irresistible and fiendishly original take on the vampire myth' — Publishers Weekly
