Description

Welcome to the Black Triangle, New York's decadent district of opium dens, gambling casinos, drunken sailors, gaudy hookers, and back-room abortions. The queen of this unsavory neighborhood is Black Lena Shanks, whose family leads a ring of female criminals - women skilled in the art of cruelty.

Only a few blocks away, amidst the elegant mansions and lily-white reputations of Gramercy Park and Washington Square, lives Judge James Stallworth. On a crusade to crush Lena's evil empire, the judge has sentenced three of her family members to death. And now she wants revenge.

One Sunday, all the Stallworths receive invitations - to their own funerals. Can even the wealth and power of the Stallworth family protect them from Lena's diabolical lust for vengeance?

This first-ever republication of Michael McDowell's chilling classic of revenge features a new introduction by Christopher Fowler and cover art by Mike Mignola.

Not what I was expecting

R.C. Bray is one of my favourite narrators. The man can do no wrong. I recently discovered THE ELEMENTALS by Michael McDowell, and it quickly made it into my top 10 books of all time. COLD MOON OVER BABYLON was also excellent. But GILDED NEEDLES was not what I wanted. The book description tells you what will happen, and that's what happens. But not until at least halfway. There were too many characters, not enough character development of almost anyone, and there were no likeable characters. The last 2 hours were not bad. Based on the other 2 books I mentioned, I was waiting for some paranormal activity, but it's not that kind of book.
