David Madsen is the author of three novels: Black Plume: The Suppressed Memoirs of Edgar Allan Poe, that imagines Poe’s life as the inspiration for his dark tales; U.S.S.A. an alternative history detective story set in American-occupied Russia; and Vodoun, a mystery that blends the political drama of present day Haiti with the Haitian revolution against Napoleon’s France.
He is a produced screenwriter, with credits that include Copycat, the Warner Brothers thriller starring Sigourney Weaver and Holly Hunter
He is writing a new mystery set in San Francisco during the turbulent 1970s, and he often visits a display case in the SF library to pay his respects to Dashiell Hammett’s typewriter.
In 1988, after a brief but devastating war, the United States has occupied the Soviet Union. The Gulags are empty, the KGB has been dissolved. Ex-CIA agent and private investigator DEAN JOPLIN, sardonic, cynical, feels trapped between two worlds. Then he takes on a grisly murder case, which twists through a surreal, chaotic country where American commercialism -- Sleeping Beauty's castle is under construction in Red Square -- is replacing communism, and the wounded Russian soul cries out for vengeance. His investigation leads to Siberia, targeted by American nuclear missiles during the final, unhinged spasms of the war. Condemned by the outside world to isolation, the inhabitants are desperate for freedom – and Dean's murder case holds the key.
