PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Thomas Perry is the bestselling author of thirty novels, including the Edgar Award-winning The Butcher's Boy, and The Old Man, recently adapted for television. His first Jane Whitefield novel, Vanishing Act, was named one of the 100 favourite mysteries of the twentieth century by the Independent Mystery Booksellers Association. He lives in Southern California.
Another excellently engineered thriller from Thomas Perry featuring Jane Whitefield. . . . Soul-searching and car chases too. What more could we ask from an escape artist like Perry? * New York Times Book Review * Jane Whitefield is unique in the annals of detective fiction. She is a throwback to a tribal world, still loyal to the beliefs of the Seneca Indians and still adhering to the call of a lost era. Thomas Perry has once again resurrected a remarkable character who seems imbued with a strange immortality and an unusual morality, and he is to be congratulated. * Washington Times * Many scenes have an almost Twilight Zone atmosphere of sudden recognition. The landscape is filled with references to tribal history, and Perry also delivers fascinating information on how to hide and change identity. . . . First-rate suspense. * Booklist (starred review) * Perry's thriller swings into action as soon as Jane is on the trail. A breathless pace sets the tone with numerous close calls as the expert, clever heroine tries to solve the crime before Jimmy gets caught. Enthusiastically recommended for series fans and for readers who appreciate strong female protagonists * Library Journal *
