Night of the Jaguar in Bloomington, MN

“Like settling down with a Gabriel Garcia Marquez novel—if it was rewritten by James M. Cain.”

Michael Gruber’s
Night of the Jaguar
—like his earlier novels featuring Miami detective Jimmy Paz (
Tropic of Night, Valley of Bones
)—transforms the conventional thriller into something extraordinary, taking the crime novel to a place it has never gone before. Combining a grisly murder investigation with chilling supernatural elements and provocative thought,
is a bravura display of the originality and artistry that has won Gruber the title, “the Stephen King of crime fiction” while inspiring the
Washington Post Book World
to name the Jimmy Paz trilogy, “among the essential novels of recent years.”
