Customer Reviews

Timely, for sure

Wow, what a timely book! The protoganist is struggling to take care of his kids, plus he's worried about aging parents, plus he has to save a dear friend.Sad and moving. Like the NYTimes says in this week's book review, Katz really "turns up the emotional screw" with this one.

One of my all time favorites!

What a great book! This book had me laughing out loud. If you never have had the pleasure of reading a Jon Katz book you are in for a treat!! He is one of my favorites!!! Pick this one up- you won't be disappointed!

A knockout read

This is a thrilling and moving mystery but a terrific look at the harried lives of many mystery readers too, caught between taking care of parents and kids. Great, great read
