-- Publishers Weekly STARRED REVIEW
"Impossible to put down. Sparkling dialog, references both
musical and literary, and an offbeat cast of believable characters
make the pages fly by."
--Library Journal STARRED REVIEW Murder and music, discord
and harmony, guilt and innocence, domesticity and passion, smooth
talk and rough sex: In The Devil's Interval--Linda Lee
Peterson's virtuoso second novel--journalist-sleuth Maggie Fiori
scores all the notes. Maggie, like the book, is smart, stylish, and
surprisingly steamy!
-- Jon Jefferson (Jefferson Bass), New York Times
bestselling crime writer Smart and sexy, with the schemes of high
society on full display, The Devil's Interval takes
readers on a tour of Everyone's Favorite City, San Francisco. As
Maggie Fiori attempts to solve this intricate mystery, which begins
in San Quentin Prison, what will happen to her marriage, which
needs a heavy dose of healing? Readers will be turning pages to
discover the answers.
-- Naomi Hirahara, Edgar Award-winning author of the Mas Arai
mysteries "The Devil's Interval is an entertaining
mystery, and shines with crisp prose, layered characters, and a
gripping plot."
-- Jonnie Jacobs, bestselling author of the Kate Austen and Kali
O'Brien mystery series "An intelligent and gripping novel. Maggie
Fiori is a witty, feisty protagonist and Peterson deftly weaves a
compelling tale of how far a mother will go to save her child.
The Devil's Interval is a roller-coaster ride through the
streets and alleys of San Francisco that will evoke Robert Parker's
Spenser novels with a dash of Janet Evanovich. Get out the
flashlight. You'll be up late.
-- Robert Dugoni, New York Times bestselling author of
The Conviction There are many things I like about this
series...Peterson has avoided the pitfalls of making her
protagonist either too cozy or too hard-bitten and has crafted in
Maggie a character who feels real.
--Deon Stonehouse, Sunriver Books
