Tento autor se noří do žánrových proudů s ironickým nadhledem a nečekanými obraty. Jeho díla zkoumají temnější zákoutí korporátní kultury a záhadná zmizení s ostrovtipem, který odhaluje absurditu moderního života. S neomylným vkusem pro znepokojivé detaily a humornou zkratkou si pohrává s očekáváními čtenáře a zanechává ho na pochybách o hranicích reality a fikce. Fanoušci hlubokých ponorů do psychologie postav a neotřelých zápletek ocení jeho jedinečný styl.
