THE STATEN ISLAND BUTCHER
The seventh book in the Cavanaugh series.
"The latest installment of the Bennis-Cavanaugh mystery series follows a similar page-turning formula as its predecessors. However, the rumination of the characters about truth and deception, love and hate, faith and fate, mental illness and human behavior, and morality and redemption that permeate the novel resonate profoundly and reflect the mysteries of our society. As usual, Hopkins has his finger on the pulse of man's flawed condition in the world today."
-Laura Boyd
"I have read all of the books in this series and love them all but I must say that this is my favorite! There are so many of life's lessons and viewpoints on morality that it would be a great selection for a book club. The characters are so well developed that I feel I know them."

"Fast paced, thrilling and very entertaining, Unholy Retribution is a great novel...With his crisp dialogue, sound development and great writing skills, Hopkins has given us a piece of literature that reflects the truth."
-Rabia Tanveer
"Hopkins' characters are authentic and believable, and his plot is both complex and fast-paced. I've read and enjoyed other Bennis/Cavanaugh mysteries in the past and found this one to be every bit as entertaining as its predecessors. Unholy Retribution: A Murder Mystery/Suspense/Thriller is most highly recommended."
-Jack Magnus for Readers' Favorite
"Unholy Retribution is an excellent and incredibly fast paced mystery novel about culture in the world, and it's timely insofar as the conflict in the novel is a microcosm of what's happening internationally."

"Nearly every page is action packed in a way that contributes to the storytelling and I was hooked from beginning to end."
-Natasha Jackson for Readers' Favorite.

"Brutal murders, solved and not quite avenged by a creaky-kneed New York cop and his brother, a priest who used to be 'special ops.' .... As the ending of the book loomed, I thought I had it pegged, and when I got there, I realized that I totally didn’t have it pegged. The book concluded in a way that was much better—more poetic and more emotional—than I imagined. My wife just reminded me that I actually said the word, “Wow,” as I shut my kindle."

letters from the Dead

The third in the Cavanaugh series.
-Katy Coyle
2013 International Readers' Favorite Finalist Award
The third in the Cavanaugh series.
"Letters from the Dead is true Hopkins, clever, suspenseful and interesting. There is a suspenseful inter-woven plot that kept me wanting to get to the next page. Along with his realistic characters are the cleverly interjected adages from Sun Tzu, Confucius, Charlie Chan and Momma."
"Letters from the Dead is full of suspense and surprises, and, like a true mystery, the reader is given a host of clues and red herrings to follow. The characters are life-like and compelling. The reader comes to know and empathize with all the characters - even with the murderer. There is both humor and excitement in this mystery/thriller ...."
"Detective Thomas Cavanaugh and cast live lives surrounded by murder, memories, revenge and redemption. Embark on their journeys as they engage and entangle to reveal the true villains and the unlikely heroes."-Katy Coyle

2006 Drago Literary Book Award
The first book in the Cavanaugh series.
"Chapter headings – and a few musings from Fr Bennis – provide insightful quotations from literature. The character descriptions are often spot on, visually and emotionally, not least Mary’s appraisal of ‘Bugsy’ – who ‘had an unconscious habit of scratching and rearranging his genitals while he was talking to you.’ I heartily recommend Fr Bennis, detectives Goldberg and Cavanaugh."
-Nik Morton, author of Blood of the Dragon Trees

"Intrigue, suspense, murder and mystery, those words only partially describe what I found within the pages of Blood Brothers."
