Review:
"The first page-turner of 2007...this is how immortality gets started."--"CBS Sunday Morning" "Few of us remember the debuts of some of today's best genre writers, such as Elmore Leonard and Stephen King with the publication of Marcus Sakey's first novel, we have the chance to."  --"The" "Washington"" Post"  "Truly excellent--like vintage Elmore Leonard crossed with classic Dennis Lehane.  Buy it today and read it tonight." --Lee Child, bestselling author of "Bad Luck and Trouble"  "A white-knuckle story with a cool, commanding style." --"The New York Times Book Review"   "Stunning Sakey gets everything right. "The Blade Itself" moves at such lightning speed that its only flaw may be leaving us wanting more." --"Florida"" Sun-Sentinel""Sakey's brilliant debut is a must read.

From the Back Cover:
Marcus Sakey's wildly praised debut thriller is an explosive, thrill-a-minute read...

"Delivers a kick and leaves no loose ends."-- The New York Times
On the South Side of Chicago, you're only as strong as your reputation. Danny Carter and his best friend Evan earned theirs knocking over pawnshops and liquor stores, living from score to score, never thinking of tomorrow...until, in the roar of a gun blast, everything changed.
"ONE OF THIS YEAR'S BEST...LITERATE, COMPLEX, AND WONDERFULLY SUSPENSEFUL." --SAN DIEGO UNION-TRIBUNEYears later, Danny has built a new life: a legitimate career, a long-term girlfriend, and a clean conscience. He's just like anyone else. Normal. Successful. Happy. Until then he spots his old partner staring him down in a smoky barroom mirror...

"Even better than they say." --Chicago Tribune
Now, with all he loves on the line and nowhere to turn, Danny realizes his new life hinges on a terrible choice: How far will he go to protect his future from his past?
