It takes a killer ... to stop a killer.

That’s how crime lord Armin Petrossian sees it when he summons Bonnie Parker to his palatial home on Christmas Eve. Petrossian has personal reasons to take care of the serial killer known as the Man in the Moon. And Bonnie—a private investigator on the Jersey Shore who moonlights as a freelance assassin—seems like the perfect choice for the job.

But the Man in the Moon has secret accomplices who are playing their own deadly game. And they don’t intend to let anyone spoil their holiday plans ...

Michael Prescott is the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of more than twenty thrillers. TEARS FOR THE DEAD is the fifth entry in the Bonnie Parker, PI, series.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

After twenty years in traditional publishing, novelist Michael Prescott found himself out of work in 2007, his career apparently over. On a whim, he began releasing his older titles and some new novels in ebook form. Much to his amazement, sales took off, and by 2011 he was one of the bestselling ebook writers in the United States, profiled in USA Today and sought after for interviews. To date he has sold roughly four million books (both print and digital).

His latest full-length thriller is TEARS FOR THE DEAD, the fifth entry in a continuing series that also features COLD AROUND THE HEART, BLOOD IN THE WATER, BAD TO THE BONE, and SKIN IN THE GAME. A complete list of his books can be found at Amazon Author Central's Michael Prescott page. Please be aware that more than one writer uses the name "Michael Prescott," and sometimes the works of these other writers show up in Amazon searches or on Amazon sales pages. If a given book is not listed at Author Central, it is the work of a different author.

5.0 out of 5 stars I Got What I Wanted for Christmas: A New Michael Prescott Novel!
Reviewed in the United States on December 27, 2018

Bonnie Parker, PI/Hit Woman/Badass, receives a phone call from Armin Petrossian, an Armenian Drug Lord. This is the kind of call you answer, whether you want to or not, and Bonnie most definitely does not. He wants to meet with her at his mansion to talk business.

When she arrives, things go about as expected. He wants her to do a little job for him: hunt down the man known as the Man in the Moon, a serial killer who has been terrorizing the area. Bonnie accepts, but will not take any money from him for the job. What can go wrong?

I will not spoil more than I already have...suffice to say this is the best Bonnie Parker novel yet. A wonderful Christmas present from Michael Prescott to all of his readers. There is action galore, sardonic wit from Bonnie and best of all, the twists in plot that I admire most about Michael Prescott. Buy it, you know you must read it! Thank you Mr. Prescott, may I have another? Soon???

Bonnie Parker, PI/hit woman has no choice but to work for crime lord Armin Petrossian. He has called her to a meeting wanting to hire her to kill The Man In the Moon, a serial killer who is shooting random people. Petrossian doesn’t like to be told no. Bonnie may walk on the wrong side of the law, but she has standards. Working for Petrossian crosses a line for her.

This is part of the Bonnie Parker series but could be read as a stand alone. I like Bonnie and her irreverent sense of humor. There were a lot of twists and turns in this book with some surprises. Bonnie was in deep trouble and I had no idea how she was going to keep herself out of jail and stay alive.

Michael Prescott is a fabulous writer. His Bonnie Parker novels go beyond suspense. Delving into the darkest shadows of humanity are always entertaining and refreshingly genuine. Thank you for continuing to write Bonnie Parker thrillers and including them with your other infinitesimal and talented wares of astounding fiction.

5.0 out of 5 stars the very definition of a page-turner
Reviewed in the United States on January 8, 2019

You can keep your Faulkner, your James Joyce (ugh, to paraphrase his wife, why can't you write books people enjoy reading?) Give me a book that is just pure pleasure to read, with memorable, sharply-drawn characters with enough backstory to them to really kindle your interest, a book that you are torn between racing through because you can't wait to see what happens next, and wanting to slow down and savor to make it last. And on top of that, the dialogue really is laugh out loud funny! Nothing extraneous in the book, every scene moves the plot along and Prescott knows when to linger, as when Bonnie is in another tight spot, to build the suspense. Prescott's writing is such that I care deeply about Bonnie, it's hard to believe she's not a real person, he has such a talent of bringing her to life. This is my favorite book yet in the Bonnie Parker series, perhaps because she has become so real to me and I can't wait to see what happens next.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another great Bonnie Parker novel!

Michael Prescott has done it again! He is so good at creating vivid page-turners -- and in Bonnie Parker he has created a complex, damaged heroine who manages to be a likable killer. She is a total badass -- and I love her. The other characters are also so well-drawn. Prescott's plotting is always strong, but I think it's his characters that make him so good. Probably best to start with the first Bonnie Parker novel and read them all -- but you can also easily enjoy this as a stand alone.

This was a good read but did not have the typical Bonnie Parker adrenaline rush I am accustomed from the Bonnie Parker Series. Don't get me wrong, it has it's moments but I simply expected a bit more.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gruesome as the previous books in the series, maybe more so.
Reviewed in the United States on March 23, 2021

Bonnie is perpetually getting her ass wedged deeply in a crack, but somehow she manages to extract it, although not without serious consequences. The author doesn't waste time, providing the reader with a lot of unnecessary details and with all the action, keeps the reader on the edge of their seats. If you can tolerate the violence, you might enjoy this book.
