Genre: Mystery

"Bearing Secrets is a richly textured novel brimming with complex and all-too-human characters. Barre's writing is lean and muscular and thoughtful. And the story bristles with a kind of ever-expanding suspense that kept me turning the pages. Richard Barre and Wil Hardesty are an E-ticket ride." - Robert Crais

"An intense, can't-put-it-down read - Barre is on my short list of must-read authors." - Janet Evanovich
