Media Reviews
His plots are tricky but never overly so; like the late, great Ross Thomas, he knows how to build a maze but not lose his readers in it before showing them a way out. - Booklist

This reissue is a good entry point to the series for fans of gritty crime fiction, and showcases some of the prolific Collins's best work. - Publishers Weekly
