Críticas:
"This is already Jahn's fourth novel in three years but, boy, has he made an impact, both here and in his native America... What links them is the extraordinary quality of the clipped prose, the purpose of the plots and his unflinching probing of the dark side...The Last Tomorrow is Jahn's most ambitious and complex novel to date. It's also a mood piece and a homage to 1950s West Coast crime fiction, when the hard boiled style morphed into the psychologically-strained depths of noir...Murder, blackmail, execution and betrayal - of one's own integrity and morality- stalk this very fine, multilayered novel." --Book of the week in Daily Mirror

"A taut novel that upends ideas about heroism and romance." --Sunday Times Culture
Reseña del editor:
April 1952. Los Angeles. After thirteen-year-old Sandy Duncan shoots his stepfather in the temple and carves a symbol into the corpse's forehead in imitation of a comic book, district attorney Seymour Markley launches a grand jury investigation into the murder and its causes, an investigation that could implicate east coast crime boss James Manning and end his thirty-year career. Also potentially implicated: the comic book's creator, Eugene Dahl, who now spends his mornings working as a milkman and his evenings warming bar stools. Threatening notes begin appearing nailed to his front door, notes that draw him to a downtown hotel where one of the district attorney's witnesses, one of the men who could bring down James Manning, is being held. There, Eugene finds the witness murdered, as well as the police officer charged with protecting him; and he finds himself framed for those murders. He's forced to go on the run, and, in order to clear his name, to devise a plan that involves deeds far worse than anything he's been framed for. And he must commit those deeds with the police right behind him.
