Critics Review

Praise for the Detective Annalisa Vega series

“This is a ride worth taking.” –Publishers Weekly on Gone in the Night

“As the story unfolds at a torrid pace…suspense builds, and plot twists abound. While the story is certainly entertaining, the author also has a serious purpose, illustrating how difficult it can be for abused women to find either help or justice.” –Associated Press on Gone in the Night

“Enough to keep you awake long after you turn the last page.” –Kirkus Reviews on All the Way Gone

“A tense, emotional, and suspenseful novel with an unusual and riveting story arc that kept me engaged throughout.” –Mystery & Suspense on All the Way Gone

“Schaffhausen offers airtight plotting and thoughtful character development here; a must-read series for procedural fans.” –Booklist on Dead and Gone

“As in every Schaffhausen novel, the suspenseful plot is combined with a thoughtful treatment of family tensions and the toll police work takes on a dedicated officer. The characters, including the many stalking suspects, are well drawn, and the prose is tight and vivid.” –Associated Press on Dead and Gone
