"Readers who have been clamoring for the return of Thomas Perry's most popular heroine can stop waiting. After a nine-year absence, Jane Whitefield is back . . . There's nothing wrong with a formula if the author can execute it this well. Perry is a master of suspense, knowing just when to switch viewpoints and how to pace the action to keep the tension high throughout."--Associated Press
"Jane Whitefield is one of the most original and intriguing characters in current crime fiction and we should all be glad she is back."--Washington Times
"Thomas Perry writes legitimate escapist fiction . . . Jane steers her charge . . . with a tenderness that's a distinct departure from her usual cut-to-the-chase style. While this curbs the breakneck action Perry is noted for, it's no loss for readers fascinated by the nuts and bolts behind the fantasy of starting a new life with a new identity."--New York Times Book Review
PRAISE FOR FIDELITY "Fidelity shows the mark of a coolly cerebral Perry puzzles... [it] rivets attention, races fast and displays distinctive Perry hallmarks, especially in its standoffs. His characters are uncannily good at sizing one another up and anticipating what the next moves will be."--Janet Maslin, New York Times
"[T]he novel continues Perry's string of memorable new characters."--Associated Press
PRAISE FOR SILENCE
"Will keep . . . readers on the edge of their seats."—South Florida Sun-Sentinel "This newest offering is classic Perry, chock-full of identity-switching deadly pursuit, but really, you can’t go wrong if it says ‘Thomas Perry’ on the cover."—Charlotte Observer "Pulse-quickening."—Los Angeles Weekly "A long, engrossing and ambitious novel. Perry is a master of plot twists and surprises, but this time he's gone all out for character development."—Washington Post "Intriguing . . . Filled with the same dark humor that has been the author's trademark since his Edgar-winning debut, The Butcher's Boy, was published 25 years ago, Silence is also an absorbing exercise in suspense."—Denver PostA bracing and ingeniously cast L.A. crime novel from Edgar Award–winner Thomas Perry
An aging but formidable strip club owner, Claudiu “Manco” Kapak, is robbed by a masked gunman as he places his cash receipts in a bank’s night-deposit box. Enraged, he sends out half a dozen security men to find the witless culprit. Their search leads them to Joe Carver, an innocent but hardly defenseless newcomer who evades capture and sets out to make Kapak wish he’d targeted someone else. Meanwhile, the real burglar, Jefferson Davis Falkins, and his new girlfriend Carrie seem to believe they’ve found a whole new profession: robbing Manco Kapak. Lieutenant Nick Slosser, the police detective in charge of the puzzling and increasingly violent case, has his own troubles, including worries about how he’s going to afford to send the oldest child of each of his two bigamous marriages to college without making their mothers suspicious. As this strange series of events explodes into a triple killing, Carver finds himself in the middle of a brewing gang war over Kapak’s little empire, while Falkins and Carrie journey into territory more dangerous than they could have ever imagined.
