Praise for Thomas Perry   "Thomas Perry is, quite simply, brilliant. And as each book comes out he becomes more so."--Robert B. Parker   "Nobody writes thrillers like Thomas Perry . . . His books are unpredictable, action-packed, and fueled by a cynical wit and observant eye for detail."-- San Francisco Chronicle   "Perry is so skillful with the old chase-and-pursuit routine, creates such interesting characters, and writes about them so tellingly, one wants more immediately, not next year--right now."-- Boston Globe, "Deuker...crafts a suspenseful and involving story that tackles timely issues of terrorism, patriotism, poverty, and privilege."

Booklist, ALA "Writing in a fast-paced, action-packed, but at the same time reflective style, Deuker uses fewer sports scenes than in his previous novels, and instead uses running as a hook to entice readers into a perceptive coming-of-age novel."
