Critical Reviews
Critical Reviews
"Intricately constructed with plenty of surprises."
-- "Booklist on Westport" "[Comey] is an expert at twisty crime mysteries."
-- "Daily Mail" "[Comey's] strongest outing yet . . . This proves that Comey the crime novelist is here to stay."
-- "Publishers Weekly (starred review)" "This is an exceedingly well written, perfectly paced thriller. Its subject matter, right-wing extremism and domestic terrorism, is most definitely ripped from the headlines, but Comey isn't interested in sensationalism or facile solutions to big problems--this is a subtle and thematically complex novel. . . . Fans of John Grisham or Scott Turow should check out the Nora Carleton novels, if they haven't already."
