SLIDE IN ALL DIRECTION A NOVEL BY DAVID LAING DAWSON
A
new compelling story of crime, addictions, love and redemption,
played out in the shadows of a post-industrial steel town. Known as a
Canadian Elmore Leonard, Dawson is perhaps a little kinder and
gentler but no less real.
The Hamilton
Spectator: January
31, 2009
"a
work of fiction that's as close to reality as it gets"
"Compelling characters find
their way through a storyline bursting with crime, murder, addiction,
tough love and tenuous redemption. Yet it doesn't feel crowded. You
may not root for the characters but I'm betting you'll end up pulling
for them."
"Slide in all Direction is a powerful read ... with a climax
that really does blur the line between fiction and true crime."
The Hamilton Spectator March
