Customer Reviews

Selected newspaper reviews:

THE NEW YORKER: "It is a genuinely gripping narrative, with some striking asides, made all the more interesting by the author's apparent familiarity with current police procedures."THE NEW YORK TIMES: "Grim and realistic...blending the excitement of the chase with a strong infusion of burlesque...enlivened along the way by New York local color."WEST COAST REVIEW OF BOOKS: "Well-written, bristling with action, and authentically detailed in its description of the modus operandi of a Manhattan manhunt by sharp and wary detectives. It's one of the most exciting stories of the year."
