PRAISE FOR KATHLEEN KENT: 'One of the most breathless, inventive, and be forewarned, violent suspense plots I've read in a long time' NPR'Exciting [and] moving... Grisly but likeable' Wall Street Journal. 'Some of the most intense crime fiction I've ever read' LitReactor. 'Terrific... Kent's own ability to avoid predictable outcomes and keep the reader on edge bodes well for future installments in this series' Chicago Tribune. 'Kent is an effective storyteller and an acute social observer, with a sharp eye for Texas-sized absurdities' Los Angeles Review of Books. 'The plot revolves around the Asian sex- and drug-trafficking trade run by the cutest little old lady you ever did see, but the broader appeal is Kent's offbeat humor, which pulls up reins just before it takes the story over a cliff' * New York Times Book Review *
