Read on ↓A Furnace for the Living
When a small-town American prosecutor is appointed to revisit the country's most infamous unsolved serial-killer case, she inherits forty years of locked evidence, one aging suspect, and a diary that implicates someone still very much alive. A Furnace for the Living is Eric Price at his most controlled — a courtroom thriller braided with a portrait of a woman refusing to inherit a lie.

Six novels. Two collections. One complete backlist.
From his 2014 debut to his forthcoming release, every Eric Price title in print — each delivered as signed bookplate, e-book, and Audie-nominated audiobook.
Eric Price has perfected a particular kind of novel: meticulously plotted, wry in its world view, and constructed so cleanly that the reader feels in the hands of a writer who has thought of everything. The Quiet Atlas is the year's most intelligent thriller.
A backlist that earned its place.
