Praise for There Was a Crooked Man, He Flipped a Crooked House "absorbing horror novella" (Recommended Story)-Rich Horton, Locus, Sept 2017 "This is a very entertaining and readable story, and what makes it even better is the sheer amount of incidental detail that Nelson includes. At the end, just when I thought it was coming off the boil a little, there is a neat little twist that pulls it back up again, as well as allowing for sequels. One for the 'Best of the Year' collections."-Paul Fraser, writing for sfmagazines.com"Downtrodden architect Glenn Washington and his none-too-bright sidekick Lennie help a crooked real estate baron flip houses in downtrodden Detroit. A house comes up that is too good to gut for parts. Too good to be true. Waaaay too good. Thing is, nothing leads where it should - go through the front door, step out the door on the back porch. Best library ever. And why are the cops nosing around? Non-Euclidian architectural petty-crime adventure, and all that implies."-Adrian Simmons, writing for Black Gate magazine.
