Rezensionen

"Awesome and propulsive." -New York Times

"Perfectly paced and beautifully structured... Thrillers don't get any better than this." --Providence Journal

"A satisfying stew of action/adventure flavored with real human drama." --Mystery Scene

"Hurwitz proves to be a master storyteller as he uncouples this riveting barnburner of a thriller. Dark Horse is exquisitely plotted with unexpected twists and deceptions, laced with cinematic fight scenes, brimming with violence and suspense." --Mystery & Suspense

"Excellent...this series just gets better!" --Publishers Weekly (starred review)

"One of thrillerdom's most compelling characters... another sure-fire hit." --Booklist

"A crackerjack thriller that briskly enhances the legend of Orphan X." --Kirkus Reviews

"Gregg Hurwitz has outdone himself this time. The many followers of Orphan X will get whiplash from the unexpected turns and surprises. It was only a matter of time until his Evan Smoak took on the drug cartels. That the main villain is a fully rounded character is unexpectedly moving. The action strikes like lightning." --Luis Urrea, Pulitzer Prize finalist for The Devil's Highway
