Reviews

"This is a terrific book--a marvel of tight plotting, spare prose, and relentless pacing. It's refreshingly cynical, deeply thrilling, and an exciting introduction to an author who's set to become an international superstar." -- Joseph Finder, New York Times bestselling author of Paranoia and Buried Secrets".... [A] brilliantly constructed crime thriller." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review)"Lawyer/writer Shoham, dubbed the Israeli John Grisham, delivers a first-rate crime thriller in this first of his works to be translated to English." -- New York Post"Lineup will grab you from the opening and take you on a seamless, unstoppable ride." -- National Examiner"What begins as a crime thriller becomes the story of a detective's search for redemption.... Israeli author Shoham's gritty [novel]...set in Tel Aviv...marks [his]...U.S. debut. Let's hope he gives us many more stories like it." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review)"Michael Connelly fans will appreciate this American debut by a best-selling Israeli author." -- Booklist"There are deals made, budding romances, car bombs that don't detonate, a wannabe journalist-and a final, very satisfying resolution in which a telescope-bearing bubbe finally spills the beans." -- Hadassah Magazine"Liad Shoham has written a crime novel that is compelling on several different levels.... Whether one calls it a mystery, suspense, thriller, or crime novel, one must call it a very, very good book." -- New York Journal of Books"Shoham creates a full-blooded thriller in Lineup a novel with multiple shocks but blessedly free of cardboard characters. A smart and absorbing read, it offers readers who prefer thoughtful crime fiction a new voice and a riveting examination of justice systems." -- Alaska"Making his U.S. debut, best-selling Israeli author Shoham (the 'Israeli John Grisham') has written an enjoyable and compelling thriller that should appeal to fans of urban crime thrillers (such as those by Michael Connelly and Robert Crais)." -- Library Journal"Set in Tel Aviv, Lineup has a fast-moving narrative.... Shoham manages to write a dark story with a light touch. He doesn't shy away from the ugly aftereffects of violent crime, but he succeeds in delivering a page-turner with a subtle measure of gallows wit." -- Ellery Queen Magazine"An absorbing crime novel...[that reveals] the everyday side to Israeli life." -- Literary Review
