A graduate of the University of British Columbia's Creative Writing program, Owen Laukkanen spent three years in the world of professional poker reporting before turning to fiction. He currently lives in Vancouver, where he's hard at work on the third and fourth installments in the Stevens and Windermere series.
A fast-moving debut thriller with enough twists to fill a pretzel bag... Let's hope Laukkanen writes more thrillers like this one * Kirkus Reviews * A fast-moving, entertaining thriller * Sunday Express * An impressive first novel * The Times * A breathtakingly fast-paced novel that seldom pauses for breath * Daily Mail * A high-octane adrenaline and gunpowder-fueled rocket ride across the country from Seattle to Miami to Detroit and points in-between... An excellent first novel! -- C.J. Box Ingenious plotting, perfect-pitch characterization and evocative sense of place combine to create an impressive debut -- Jonathan Kellerman Really terrific - characters that live and breathe, a just-right story, and chills aplenty. Highly recommended -- Lee Child
