Praise for Robyn Gigl's Erin McCabe Legal Thrillers Among this year's standouts...hair-raising...thrillingly complex...a groundbreaking series poised to become a definitive one. -The New York Times Book Review (Sarah Weinman) on Survivor's Guilt Stunning...Gigl delightfully flips the usual terms of the genre with a murder victim readers are quickly drawn to hate and a murderer whom they will be rooting for. Her takes on big questions of justice, revenge, and the nature of victimhood will resonate with many. -Publishers Weekly, STARRED REVIEW for on Survivor's Guilt Another great merger of legal mystery and psychological thriller. -CrimeReads on Survivor's Guilt Emotionally resonant...Gigl is too astute and compassionate a writer to create cartoon villainy out of anti-trans attitudes...quietly groundbreaking. -The New York Times Book Review on By Way of Sorrow Readers will find that BY WAY OF SORROW is a compulsively riveting page-turner with a complex heroine, a captivating plot, and no easy answers. It's one of the best thrillers of the year. -Mystery Scene on By Way of Sorrow An intelligent and resourceful protagonist with an unusual backstory...Erin's ability to navigate the intricacies of the law is just as fascinating as the subsequent perils she encounters. Gigl, an attorney, offers some enlightening insights into the workings of the legal world. -Publishers Weekly on By Way of Sorrow Gigl, a transgender lawyer herself, provides provocative insights into the legal system and the challenges of gender identity. -Booklist Gigl's accomplishment here is to parse the serious flaws with the legal system and expose the vulnerability of homeless members of the trans community by way of subtle characterization and seamless plotting. In less skillful hands, we might get melodrama or a polemic; here, we get engrossing originality-and a brilliant point in a larger argument for the benefits of greater representation in our beloved genre. -Lambda Literary Review on By Way of Sorrow A nuanced and beautiful story of standing up for what's right, against all odds. -CrimeReads on By Way of Sorrow With tight, realistic plotting interweaving a murder mystery with insights into transgender issues, By Way Of Sorrow is a promising series debut... I'm looking forward to seeing where Robyn Gigl will go with this series next, and am really glad she's writing so honestly and entertainingly about trans issues in a field with precious few trans leads. -Criminal Element on By Way of Sorrow
