"I recommend it wholeheartedly. The tone is pure horror. Pike is a master of creeping dread, relentlessly disturbing the reader."--"The Washington Post Book World" on "The Cold One"

"A fine horror tale that hooks the reader. Pike keeps the chills at a high level with this exhilarating story."--"Midwest Book Review" on "The Blind Mirror"

"Highly recommended."--"Rocky Mountain News" on "The Cold One"

""The Season of Passage "is among the finest horror books in the decade."--"Rocky Mountain News"

"Gripping . . . pays homage to Thomas Harris's Hannibal Lecter novels, particularly in the character of FBI agent Kelly Feinman. The intricate, thoughtful plot offers enough fresh variation on the serial-killer theme to keep readers turning the pages."--"Publishers Weekly" on "Falling
"
"Eerie parallels mark this cat and mouse: he, the love-wounded, elusive mastermind; she, every bit as cunning, smarting from the agony of her divorce. This is stylishly written, but it's the corkscrew plotting and twisted imagination that provide the (guilty) pleasures here."--"Kirkus Reviews" on "Falling"
