“[A] neatly rendered and readily consumed tale of suspense in which
elegance counterbalances horror.”
—Booklist
Praise for Kill and Be Killed
“This is delightfully sophisticated entertainment. After Begley’s
1996 novel ‘About Schmidt,’ Albert Schmidt returned for two more
novels. Jack Dana deserves another encore.”
—San Francisco Chronicle
“A gripping thriller filled with tension, danger, and the unknown;
and written in such graceful prose, it deserves to be called a
literary thriller.”
—The Huffington Post
“An intriguing follow-up to Killer, Come Hither . . .
Fans of Lee Child’s Jack Reacher should enjoy Jack Dana’s
adventures.”
—Publishers Weekly
“Kill and Be Killed is a humdinger. The final confrontation
between Jack and Abner Brown is unforgettable.”
—Southampton Press
“Begley remains one of America’s most able storytellers—reliably
smart, naughty and wise.”
—Toronto Star
