The narrative whips by at breakneck page and the plotting is smart and tense. * Rob Reynolds *Author Pobi and Character Page are even on the strength of this first outing shaping up to be the new dream team for fans of high concept thrillers.

About The Author

Robert Pobi

Robert Pobi is an internationally bestselling novelist whose work has been published in more than fifteen countries. He spends the summer months in a cabin in the mountains, and when he’s not writing at a desk once owned by Robert Calvi, he fishes for everything that swims - from great white sharks off Montauk to the monstrous pike of northern Finland. He collects early twentieth century American art, listens to a little too much Motorhead, and doesn’t do Twitter.
