Reviews

"Thrilling...a superbly written and atmospherically engaging crime novel." --Sven Birkerts, The Washington Post Book World "Wonderful..powerfully enigmatic. . .extremely intelligent. . .Blackwater workds so brilliantly both as a mystery and an evocation of an unfamiliar world." --Richard Bernstein, The New York Times "Sriking ...Graham Greene meets Dean Koontz." --Entertainment Weekly "Never uninvolving. . .keeps us guessing. . .Ekman tosses out conventional plot mechantics and stuns us with unexpected tragedy and twist after twist." --Peter Handel, San Francisco Sunday Examiner and Chronicle "Mesmerizing. . .like Smilla's Sense of Snow, it is beautifully written, absorbing, and accessible. It makes you hold your breath." --Newsday
