Critics Review

“Ace Atkins goes straight for the throat in The Lost Ones.”–Houston Press

More Praise for The Lost Ones

“Atkins’ sense of place is superb, his story stark and suspenseful. Quinn Colson has a quick wit, a strong sense of honor, and radiates sex appeal, but more importantly he knows the difference between law and order.”–Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

“Atkins delivers a powerful, ripped-from-the-headlines plot.”–Mystery Scene

“Atkins seems to have hit his stride with this splendid sequel to the Edgar Award-nominated The Ranger.”–Library Journal

“Edgar-finalist Atkins showcases his versatility in his exciting, thoughtful second thriller starring ex-Ranger-turned-lawman Quinn Colson…a contemporary laconic lead battling evil that could come straight out of a Gary Cooper western.”–Publishers WeeklyMore Praise For Ace Atkins’s Quinn Colson Series

“In Quinn Colson, bestselling author Ace Atkins has created an American hero in a time when we need him.”–C. J. Box

“Ace Atkins’s Quinn Colson series is, quite simply, the best in crime fiction today–and also so much more. With a rich cast of characters, and a hero we can count on, these are tales of morality and desperation, of shocking violence and the enduring resilience of family and community. And the emotional places they take us make them unforgettable.”–Megan Abbott

“Quinn Colson is my kind of guy. I would follow him anywhere.”–Lee Child

“Atkins finds his natural-born storytellers everywhere. It’s all music to these ears.”–Marilyn Stasio, The New York Times Book Review
