The Pascual Rose series moves Sam Reaves’ crime fiction out of Chicago and into Europe. Pascual is an American living abroad who gets dragged into dangerous situations involving espionage, political violence, and criminal networks. The three books were published between 1999 and 2001.
Reaves brings the same gritty realism from his Cooper MacLeish novels to a European setting. The books are tightly plotted and move quickly, with Pascual operating in a world where the line between governments and criminals is not always easy to see.
