Review:
"Don't miss this engrossing and complex debut, the first volume in a projected trilogy. . . . It's perfect for those who love travel and history mixed with crime." --"Library Journal" (April 2012)
"[T]he plot builds to a dramatic and suspenseful climax. The author's refreshingly clear-eyed portrayal of his hero ('Peter Cammon felt superior to psychology, in the way that many people do who have never studied it') is a plus." --"Publishers Weekly "(February 13, 2012)

About the Author:
