"From the Hardcover edition.""Disher continues to show an impressive knack for planning capers that go like clockwork." "--Kirkus" Praise for the Wyatt series "Like an Australian Bob le Flambeur, Disher's titular robber is smooth, calm and planning a big heist."--"Entertainment Weekly"" ""There's real technique on show here.... it's so fast and hard-written that it becomes a blur, a flurry of activity that dazzles the senses.... "Wyatt" is a thrill-laden pleasure. I can't wait to read the others."--ABC Radio "Outstanding.... The spare, economical prose perfectly suits this tale of mad love and crimes gone wrong, which will remind many of Westlake's better Parker novels."--"Publishers Weekly," Starred Review "Endlessly cool, enormously competent.... a banquet for those who like it uncut and unsparing."--"Kirkus Reviews," Starred Review "Brilliant.... The similarities with another fictional thief--Richard Stark's antihero Parker--are many."--"Seattle Times"" ""Disher takes us back to the golden age of thrillers, a time when they were fast, taut and dependably suspenseful."--"Kirkus Reviews"" ""A satisfying read, with a suspenseful denouement... recommended."--"Spinetingler Magazine"
