Critic reviews

“McBain has the ability to make every character believable - which few writers these days can do.” (Associated Press)

“McBain forces us to think twice about every character we meet...even those we thought we already knew.” ( New York Times Book Review)

Proposterous

This seemed like this would be a good book. Then things became ridiculous. There is no way any police department, would use a woman as a decoy and not protect her.
