Welcome to the world of investigative street reporting. Washington, D.C., power capital of the world, is also home to bums, killers, cops who bend the rules, F.B.I. agents who dole out leaks to reporters like so many dimes to the poor, and layers of lies and misinformation. Dave Haggard thought it was the worst idea he had ever had for a story. He was living in a homeless shelter, sickened by the smells, and feeling sorry for himself when a scuffle in the stairwell and a scream brought him into a terrifying hunt for the serial killer of priests. A sick, sadistic murderer was using a butterfly knife as a Rosary in grisly killings that would bring Dave into the hunt not as a reporter but as bait. The head of Homicide has a plan to trap the killer and it involves Dave and his girlfriend. A hit man for a group of religious fanatics is on the loose and has an agenda of his own. The killer is lost in his lunatic visions and he knows who Dave is and where to find him. What are his plans for Elena? Who to trust? Who to fear? Dave Haggard is a reporter in hiding from his own story.

In this first of a thriller series by Larry Matthews, we met Father Darius who is a strange Catholic priest to say the least. His way of saying the rosary is with a butterfly knife that he opens and closes, the click replacing a bead. In his own way he also uses it to correct the ways of bad priests. This puts him in the way of news reporter David Haggard and his beautiful girl friend Elena. It also makes him of interest to the District of Columbia police, the F.B.I and a group of Catholic police from New York City known as Warriors of Mary or Posse Maria depending on whom they are being used by. Once you get in this you won't put it down. Once done you will become and fan and eagerly pick up the second book in the series Brass Knuckles.Product details

Butterfly Knife Dave Haggard Thriller Book 1 edition by Larrry Matthews Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
From the opening lines, Larry Matthews' novel, Butterfly Knife, grabs the reader's attention with a style reminiscent of the forefathers of the genre, Chandler, Hammett and Cain with the type of sharp wording, crisp dialogue and vivid descriptions that flow easy like a smooth Tennessee whiskey then kicks you in the throat when you least expect it. Bravo!
This is one of those books that sucks you in and holds you captive until its over. Neat look into the world of investigative journalism. Larry Matthews is a true storyteller!
You have to love a good, solid thriller. They're the nouveau noir of our generation; the literary jazz of Gen-Xers.
Butterfly Knife uses many of the gold-plated standards of thrillerdom and still manages to twist its readers around with a surprise or two.
Larry Matthews has a bit of a sick imagination, and the uses he gets up to with a butterfly knife might leave some readers wide-eyed and a bit shell-shocked, but only the best thrillers can do that to a jaded and cynical readership.
I just finished reading Larry Matthews first Dave Haggard thriller Butterfly Knife. It was a roller coaster ride from beginning to end. I can't wait to read the next one in the series. His character Dave Haggard is so down to earth real, you can't help but feel like you are part of the story. I won't tell you the ending, but it left me wanting more. I think Matthews has created a great character here, and judging from his own background as a journalist, I can see why he has won awards. Double thumbs up on this exciting novel.
This is the first book I've read from this author and I really enjoyed it. I grew up in Washington, DC so it was particularly fun for me to be able to visualize almost all locations used. It is well written and the story keeps moving. I will read more by this author.
Reasonably well written, believable and kept me involved. I wanted to know more at the end of the book, but it ended "right." I will look for more by this author!
Fast-paced, for the most part quite well-written (although "wacked" just irritated me) and with characters that are believable to those of us who watch crime shows on TV. You know what I mean, it's like you know them, but what you really know is the "type" as portrayed on police shows. That's not a bad thing, it make reading the book even easier because you're on solid ground. Uncommon story line, good descriptions and portrayal of atmosphere all created an entertaining read.
