Quotes

“It always storms in the last chapter of an Archer Mayor novel—the better for this rugged stylist to top off the narrative with a snow-blinding, wind-howling action scene like the mountain chase that brings Tucker Peak to its invigorating close.” New York Times

“Filled with his usual strong characters, evocative settings, well-researched backgrounds, and polished writing…Often labeled a ‘regional’ writer, Mayor, with his intelligent plots, wit, relaxed style, and understanding of human relationships, deserves wider recognition.” Publishers Weekly (starred review)

“Mayor again displays his remarkable ability to meld setting and character into a fully realized whole.” Booklist
