Thanks to my wonderful publisher, I’m in LA, filming promos for my seventh thriller, THE DEVIL’S COUNTRY. (March 2017; Thomas & Mercer)
Amazing how hard it is to talk coherently when someone is videoing you.
It never gets old.
Author’s copies of my sixth thriller arrived today. THE GRID, available August 25, 2015, wherever books are sold.

In today’s episode, THE CONTRACTORS is compared to Quentin Tarantino.
From BookReporter.com (Feb. 7, 2014)
“THE CONTRACTORS reads like a treatment for a new Quentin Tarantino film, full of quirky — and dangerous — characters, twists and turns, and enough action to fill another two or three books. The experience of reading it is akin to sitting in a dark closet while someone opens the door at irregular intervals and lobs flashbang grenades inside. That’s a compliment, in case you’re in doubt.”

The Dallas Morning News weighs in on THE CONTRACTORS
From The Dallas Morning News (Sunday, Feb. 2, 2014):
“Hunsicker artfully uses Dallas as a realistic backdrop for much of the action in The Contractors. As a fourth-generation Dallasite, the writer knows his city intimately — but this isn’t the Dallas you see on Dallas. This is the rough-edged side of Big D, the land of narcocorridas, rednecks and cash-only transactions. It’s the less-pleasant face of the city, one that can be neatly masked behind the walls of an ordinary house on an innocent-appearing residential street in Casa Linda.”

Starred review for THE CONTRACTORS
From Publishers Weekly:
“Hunsicker’s first standalone packs a mean wallop. . . Helping to make this a standout are perfectly drawn characters, nifty surprises, and a frightening portrayal of the federal government’s poorly monitored use and funding of “contractors” who are heavily armed and extremely dangerous. Hunsicker, author of the Lee Henry Oswald PI series, has crafted a truly chilling thriller.”
