Ex-mob enforcer Isaiah Coledrige has hung out a shingle as a private eye in New York's Hudson Valley, and in his newest case, a seemingly simple murder investigation leads him to the most terrifying enemy he has ever faced
When a small-time criminal named Harold Lee turns up in the Ashokan Reservoir - sans a heartbeat, head, or hands - the local mafia capo hires Isaiah Coleridge to look into the matter. The mob likes crime, but only the crime it controls...and as it turns out, Lee is the second independent contractor to meet a bad end on the business side of a serrated knife. One such death can be overlooked. Two makes a man wonder.
A guy in Harold Lee's business would make his fair share of enemies, and it seems a likely case of pure revenge. But as Coledrige turns over more stones, he finds himself dragged into something deeper and more insidious than he could have imagined, in a labyrinthine case spanning decades. At the center are an heiress moonlighting as a cabaret dancer, a powerful corporation with high-placed connections, and a serial killer who may have been honing his skills since the Vietnam War....
A twisty, action-packed follow-up to the acclaimed Blood Standard, Black Mountain cements Laird Barron as an inventive and remarkable voice in crime fiction.

Reseñas de la Crítica
“Coleridge is a large, unbelievably strong, scarred man - a thug, yes, but a thinking-person's thug.... Readers with a tolerance for violence will want to meet him." (Booklist, starred review)
“Isaiah Coleridge [is] an intimidating presence.... A big bruiser who likes nothing better than a good fight.” (The New York Times Book Review)
“Things get downright hallucinatory as [Coleridge] proceeds toward a climax that seems as much Bram Stoker as Lawrence Block. [A] supportive librarian-girlfriend and a loyal partner-in-arms give the p.i. the emotional backup he needs to return (no doubt) for further bizarre adventures at 'the mysterious intersection of coincidence and fate.'" (The Wall Street Journal)

Intense, grimmer with less wise cracking, Isaiah is hired to investigate the Croatoan, a legendary mob hit man that had a side hobby as a serial killer spanning decades. Question is whether he's truly dead when wise guys start showing up with his signature all over them (cut into distinct pieces with a serrated knife). Or is it a copy cat? Possibly an apprentice seeking revenge? Isaiah finds himself navigating the seedy underbelly of government contract corruption, wealthy industrialists and mob politics to find the answer.
William DeMeritt's narration has improved from Blood Standard. Woot! Gone is the workmanlike delivery. He has range, timing and crisp, distinct characters and the entire story steps off the page. Yay!
Well worth the credit.
Great story, much better narration.
