"Begley writes clean, crisp, graceful prose, the kind that's always rare and ever a blessing. Also, he sets his story in a world he knows well, that of Ivy League graduates and elite law firms, of people who inhabit the Upper East Side, enjoy Manhattan's premier restaurants, patronize the ballet and opera and spend their weekends amid the pleasures of Long Island's Sag Harbor. Begley evokes this world effortlessly because he knows it inside out."

Washington Post "A stealthy, page-turning thriller ... all admirers of crisp prose and taut plotlines will gladly follow Jack on his deadly quest to circumvent the law."
