Fatal Return arrives with a sequence behind it, listed in our catalogue under the Fatal banner, and a returning framework of that sort usually means a writer with a lead character and a rhythm already established. Alex Hansen is working in crime and thriller territory, at unapologetically commercial pace.
What we can responsibly say about the author stops at the work, since nothing else stands up to checking. The reception is the more telling detail in any case: over a hundred listeners have weighed in, which is a good deal more traction than most recent crime titles gather.
