When James Finn ran down the priestess daughter of a houngan in a Louisiana bayou, he never imagined the consequences. When Laura Finn begins a search for her husband, the nightmare begins. James Finn finds himself trapped in the persona of Clay Cross, a 1950's cold war warrior and misogynist private eye, a composite of every pulp novel he’s ever read. Clay Cross is a swirl of Voodoo, Noir, and mangled metaphors, its comic aspects coming from a 1950’s private eye out of his time

Gritty, snarky, and just a little terrifying By Veronica Sicoe Although this isn't typically up my alley, I gave this story a try and I'm grateful I did. What a strange and fascinating ride!CLAY CROSS is an organic mixture of noir and horror, hardboiled detective story and dark fantasy. It's hard to explain, but it works really well. The author took the classic 1950's cynical detective, a couple of scheming Voodoo gods, and a bitter old comic book writer, wound them up in a 'Bring about the Apocalypse then take over the world' sort of plot, and let them loose on each other.The character Clay Cross' point of view is snarky and fantastically well written, although it was sometimes difficult for me to follow. Some bits of the action were smothered by speculation and I lost the sense of location a few times. But that might just be me. The story kept up a fast enough pace, with plenty of tension and twists to pull me along until the gripping end.

I’m not a “noir” reader, but thanks to these characters, and Michael Keyton’s tight, sassy dialogue and action-packed narrative, I’m a new fan.How can you not love lines like this:“One luscious tomato turned the corner, and my heart stopped. Then she breathed, and the ground began to vibrate, either that or my heart had made a career move and had taken up the pneumatic drill.”Add to the mix a bit of dry humor and dark overtones of voodoo and mystery, and you've got one hell of a story. I recommend this book to noir fans, as well as newbs looking for an introduction into the genre. And I eagerly await the next instalment. There better be a next instalment.

Beyond the darkness and profanity, there’s the alternate reality of an anachronism who sees the world through a hard, clear, parallax prism. The result is more than the horrors wrought by black magic. It’s the terrible truth as seen through the crystal of vision unencumbered by effete modernism. He’s hard-boiled, has very little impulse control, carries around a grudge as miasmic as fifty pounds of bad meat, and is more dangerous than a trod upon sidewinder. He’s Clay Cross, private eye. Are you ready to go places you’ve not seen before, and won’t want to see again? It’s a wild ride that does yeoman homage to the noir genre. Read it and see. Highly recommended. The nightmares will pass.
