Reviews / Votes
Perry delivers nonstop action, relentless tension, and such three-dimensional secondary characters. * Publishers Weekly * There are probably only half a dozen suspense writers alive who can be depended upon to deliver high-voltage shocks; vivid, sympathetic characters; and compelling narratives each time they publish. Thomas Perry is one of them. -- Stephen King Excruciatingly exciting... Another stunner from a modern master. * Booklist, starred review * Perry is one of the best in the business today, and his latest is a brooding, peripatetic stunner. * CrimeReads * Mr. Perry's characters come to life with a single sentence... He's one of the greatest living writers of suspense fiction. * New York Sun * Veteran crimemeister Perry adeptly weaves Native American culture, Jane's past cases, and her investigative and survival skills, along with some breathless chase scenes - some on foot - in this fast-moving suspense novel. * Mystery Scene Magazine *More details
