* "What sounds like an ordinary PI caper, though, becomes something elevated, poignant, and complex in this beautifully written novel...Sandlin has crafted an outstanding series that readers will want to follow and savor." -- Kirkus Reviews , starred review * "Like her award-winning debut, The Do-Right (2015), also starring Delpha Wade, Sandlin sequel soars on the wings of its its spot-on evocation of a time and place and its utterly compelling central charcters, Delpha and Tom, as their mutual respect and trust grows along with a dash of sexual tension. A first-rate series crying for word-of-mouth support... --Michele Leber" -- Booklist , starred review * "[W]hat makes this crime novel soar is the humanity and humility of its main characters. It is by turns exciting, tender, suspenseful, observant, and gently funny. Readers will eagerly await the next installment." -- Publishers Weekly , starred review "In Sandlin's second to feature her ex-con-turned-private-eye Delpha and her sympathetic boss Phelan, the two take on a case involving blood, brothers, and Beaumont's darkest secrets. The Texan on staff is confident in saying that Lisa Sandlin's series is the best thing to ever come out of Beaumont." -- CrimeReads "Its characters, wit, exquisite prose, and sense of redemption are so richly crafted that they'll stick to most anyone like, well, a shirt to your skin on an August afternoon in Beaumont." -- The Austin Chronicle "With phrasing to linger over but pacing that presses forward, The Bird Boys will have readers racing to grab the first book and crossing fingers for more of the dynamite characters inhabiting this noir series. --Lauren O'Brien" -- Shelf Awareness "Sandlin knows the craft, no question. Her writing is finely cultivated; we can feel we intimately know her characters. And Sandlin's story is classic swindle, surprise, murder and coppers before P.O.S.T certification and ethics panels. --Jeffrey Mannix" -- The Durango Telegraph "Populated with the same snappy dialogue we've come to expect from Sandlin, the issues Delpha and Tom face and the terrible crimes they uncover give this story all the heft and drive one hopes for in a very good crime novel." -- Sheryl Cotleur, bookseller, Copperfield's Books Another perfectly penned novel by a master of the mystery/suspense genre, "The Bird Boys" is a wonderfully entertaining read from cover to cover and certain to be an enduringly popular addition to community library collections. -- Midwest Book Review Best Crime Novels of the Year, New York Times Best Paperback Fiction Nominee, Edgar Allan Poe Award Best Original Private Eye Paperback Nominee, Shamus Awards Reading the West Award Nominee, "Ex-con Delpha Wade and her PI boss sizzle in 'The Bird Boys,' Lisa Sandlin's terrific follow-up to 'The Do-Right.' Subtle, sexy, tender, and smart, 'The Bird Boys' lovingly recreates Beaumont, Texas in the 1970s: the crooks, the cops, and regular folks just trying to get by. Brimming with hard-boiled dialogue and poetic insights alike, 'The Bird Boys' is a deeply humane and provocative book that builds relentlessly to its chilling conclusion."-- Joy Castro , author of Hell or High Water, "Sandlin knows the craft, no question.
