Product Description
Review
"This engrossing genre bender combines police procedural, male romantic suspense, science fiction, and/or fantasy, nourish pursuit thriller, and gross-out horror story." —Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine
"This is no book for the squeamish, since it describes horrific procedures, steamy sex, and some pretty out there occult beliefs. That said, Empties can be a fascinating adventure for mystery fans who like a dash of weirdness with their murders." —Mystery Scene No. 110
Product Description
In this nightmarish tale, a third-rate detective is faced with an impossible crime, as bodies are turning up without their brains and without any indication of how the organs were removed. His only lead—an attractive landlady—becomes more than a lead and drives him into a world of terror, where his sanity is questioned and he must stop the monster before she does more evil. Or should he join her? Does he even have a choice, or will he just be driven by terror?

A recommendation for both fantasy and mystery libraries alike, July 10 2009
By Midwest Book Review - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Empties (Hardcover)
George Zebrowski's EMPTIES is a recommendation for both fantasy and mystery libraries alike. When impossible things begin to happen to a seasoned police detective, it brings magic and mystery in this fine survey of Detective Benek's great challenge. Both are top picks for general and fantasy lending libraries.
5.0 out of 5 stars
A Rich Narrative, April 12 2009
By Mark Levy - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Empties (Hardcover)
Built on a fascinating premise, this novel reads like a police procedural infused with mot justes of history, mythology, allusions to literature, and, as we expect from Zebrowski, philosophy. The characters are well defined but unpredictable, just like in real life. Highly recommended.
