by Tom Corcoran
—The St. Petersburg Times
“With its sure feel for the Key West that resides beneath the tourist façade and a quirky, hard-edged rhythm pulsing beneath the surface calm, this debut deserves a wide and welcoming audience.”
—Publishers Weekly
“THE MANGO OPERA leapfrogs over many first-time novels and puts Corcoran solidly in the company of the likes of Lawrence Shames and Robert Crais. In both plot and dialogue Corcoran shows a deft hand … Readers will shout a resounding ‘bravo!’ at the end of THE MANGO OPERA. Tom Corcoran is off to a very fast start on what is sure to be a long career as a fine mystery novelist.”
