Reviews

"The suspense builds as the various story lines neatly intersect…Box is writing at the top of his game."
—Publishers Weekly (starred)

"Like a patient spider, Box plays out plotline after plotline, balancing his sympathies adroitly between anti-establishment libertarians who’ve had enough of the coastal elites and officers sworn to serve and protect their communities, before knotting them all together with a climactic revelation that for better or worse will leave you gasping. One of the most successful of Box’s increasingly ambitious have-it-all thrillers."
—Kirkus Reviews (starred)

"Box keeps all the balls in the air, culminating in an ending sequence that’s pure gold and extremely satisfying on multiple levels."
—BookPage (starred)

"This very tense twenty-third entry in Box's legendary Series…keeps timely, introducing crypto mining, gun control, and political extremism into the plot. The sparkling dialogue and rich characterizations again testify to Box's storytelling prowess."
