Reconstruction

Praise for Reconstruction Mick Herron never tells a suspense story in the expected way, which is why his new novel, Reconstruction, reads as much like a puzzle mystery as it does a thriller . . . unpleasant things are bound to happen, and they do--but not until Herron has finished surprising us. --The New York Times Book Review Masterful . . . How Herron is able to tie all these events together will test the sleuthing ability of even the most savvy readers as one surprise engenders another. The intricate plot, coupled with Herron's breezy writing style . . . results in superior entertainment that makes most other novels of suspense appear dull and slow-witted by comparison. --Publishers Weekly, Starred Review Ingenious and heartfelt. --Kirkus Reviews In Herron's complex story everyone is a reconstructionist, either of their own baggage or of other people's lives or of the events around them . . . Spellbinding. --Mysterious Reviews Reconstruction sizzles and dazzles as readers slowly become more fully aware of the unique relationships between complex characters in this complicated tale. --BookLoons Praise for Mick Herron Stylish and engaging. --Washington Post Tough, bright and highly promising. --Chicago Tribune Good characterization, dialogue and well-paced narrative make this confident first novel frighteningly plausible. --Daily Telegraph
