Review
"It's her canny feel for the psyche's ambiguous meanderings, more than plot twists, that generates most of the thrills....This author creates an atmosphere of menace worthy of a Joyce Carol Oates."--Dan Cryer, Newsday
"Barker soars to new heights with this harrowing, contemporary study of fate tainted by the stench of evil."--Robert Allen Papinchak, USA Today
"Barker creates a sense of menace worth of Ian McEwan...Border Crossing is replete with sharp, expressive exchanges, hard poetry, and as many enigmas as implacable truths."--Kerry Field, The Atlantic Monthly
"Barker writes with compelling urgency--Border Crossing is to be read in one sitting."--Joan Mellen, The Baltimore Sun
"Exhilarating moral exploration, and prose as naked and jolting as an unwrapped live wire."--Richard Eder, The New York Times Book Review
"Pat barker understands the dynamics of psychic and shutdown as well as any writer living....In Border Crossing Barker brings post-traumatic stress disorder from the literal to the domestic battlefield."--Sven Birkerts, Esquire
"Barker has constructed in Danny a classic borderline personality disorder; the result is both chilling and psychologically persuasive...as frightening as it is wise."--Gail Caldwell, The Boston Sunday Globe
