CHRIS HOLCOMBE
AUTHOR OF THE HIDDEN GOTHAM SERIES
Chris Holcombe is the author of LGBTQ+ historical crime fiction called The Hidden Gotham Series, which showcases New York’s lively but criminally under-represented queer world of the 1920s.
His first novel The Double Vice was released in 2021 to great acclaim, with Queer Writers of Crime calling it “one of the best I’ve read all year! I can’t recommend it highly enough!”
His second novel The Blind Tiger was released in 2022, and it continues the story of gay speakeasy owner Dash Parker and his Queer friends in Greenwich Village and in Harlem. Readers heralded it as “honest-to-goodness pulp fiction at its gayest and most glamorous!”
The third novel in the series The Devil Card was released in 2023, with readers saying it was Holcombe’s best one yet.
He is currently hard at work plotting and planning the next Hidden Gotham novel.
