This is acclaimed novelist Edward Bloor's most commercial novel to date. The plotline involving a kidnapped girl and a botched ransom drop is absolutely riveting and should make this a major player in the retail market. Bloor has layered in themes of social justice, racism, and classism, making this an effective social satire as well as a thriller, which educators and librarians will appreciate, too.
With the publication of his first novel, Tangerine, Edward Bloor was heralded as a major new talent. We had been following his career as fans for years before we finally welcomed him to our list with London Calling, which fulfills all the promise he showed with his debut. We believe this is his finest, most thought-provoking, and most emotionally satisfying work to date. With this remarkable book now in paper, it should gain him even more fans.
