'A dazzling debut . . . Watch this writer. She does it all: plots intelligently, writes elegantly, and creates characters who compel attention the old-fashioned way - by making you believe in them.' - Kirkus Reviews
'An outstanding debut thriller' - Lancashire Evening Post
'Compton has written an exceptional first novel. Sarah, Genevieve and Shiloh are all flawed and credible characters who are thrust into thorny situations and forced to make difficult moral choices . . . There is a dark vein in the story underpinning the suspense, and the denouement is truly shocking and leaves us wondering what will become of them all. Compton is working on a sequel - let's hope she writes fast.' - Manchester Evening News
'First class, serious crime fiction' - Publishers Weekly
'How well do you really know the one you love? Jodi Compton raises that disquieting question in her fine debut novel, THE 37TH HOUR (Delacorte, $21.95), an intelligent and challenging thriller that unsettles the mind of its heroine by undermining her faith in her husband. Sarah Pribek, a tall, athletic and seemingly nerveless detective with the Hennepin County Sheriff's Department, has been married for just two months to a Minneapolis police officer named Mike Shiloh when he vanishes while on his way to Quantico for F.B.I. training. Ignoring the probability that her sexy, enigmatic spouse has simply walked out on her, Sarah investigates his disappearance as she would any other missing-person case, following a trail that takes her back to his family roots in Utah and reveals a person she never knew.
Compton dignifies her characters by treating them like complex adults whose problematical relationships can't be resolved by straightening out a few loose facts. ''Everything I knew was wrong,'' Sarah says, after discovering the ''shadow self'' her husband couldn't bring himself to show her. With a murderer at large and Sarah working on her own in the dark, the suspense may be killing, but it isn't cheap. It's the profound terror of knowing you don't know a thing.' - New York Times on THE 37TH HOUR
Do you know what the people you love are capable of? A subtly compelling thriller by a wonderful new talent.
