Advance Praise
"A tense debut action-thriller that hinges on a pair of related kidnappings.... Jacobs presents the ensuing tense moral and tactical
standoff with smooth skill and intense readability. Her sense of the
New Hampshire landscape is vividly atmospheric (“The sky was azure,
wisped with occasional brushes of clouds, and the trees were rocket
bursts of fall color”), and her characters are refreshingly
three-dimensional; by the end, Jacobs even makes a monstrous villain
such as Thornlocke understandable, if not sympathetic. The novel is
fast-paced right from the end of the first chapter, and the dialogue is
crisply believable throughout. Fans of mystery writers such as Lisa
Scottoline and William Kent Krueger will find much to entertain them
here.
An intelligent, thought-provoking adventure story and a fine debut."
