Distinctive and entertaining."
Assassin's Lullaby (2022) Mark Rubinstein "Mark Rubinstein's Assassin's Lullaby is vividly intense. For this man who doesn't exist but who is all too real, every detail carries life-and-death significance. Every instant might be his last. The immediacy is palpable."
Dead Girl Blues (2020) Lawrence Block "It’s been a long time since I read anything this hard-hitting and thought-provoking. DEAD GIRL BLUES is daringly original, both shocking and brilliantly told. At a time when many crime novels blend together, Grandmaster Lawrence Block again shows he’s a one-of-a-kind author."

A Conspiracy of Bones offers page-turning proof that Kathy Reichs won't be giving up her forensic-anthropologist-in-distress throne anytime soon."

A twenty-four karatread."
Wicked River (2018) Jenny Milchman "From time to time, I come across an action manuscript that shares my high regard for the [action] genre and the intensity it can achieve. One such book is Jenny Milchman's Wicked River, which I urge you to experience. It thoroughly gripped me, not only because of the excitement it creates and the inventiveness with which it does so, but also because of the subtext about a honeymoon in which the various stages of a marriage are condensed in a wilderness that's both physical and psychological. Wicked River is a wild ride."
