Critics Review

“Krugler’s portrait of wartime Washington, particularly the rivalries within ONI and the enmity between the FBI and ONI, is thoroughly absorbing.” * Booklist *“Krugler’s portrait of wartime Washington, particularly the rivalries within ONI and the enmity between the FBI and ONI, is thoroughly absorbing.” * The Richmond Times-Dispatch *“History professor Krugler makes his triumphant fiction debut.” * Publishers Weekly (starred) *“A good old-fashioned spy novel. The action is fast paced and the mystery is gorgeously wrought and splendidly opaque. Read The Dead Don’t Bleed for a thrill-packed ride with a truly stunning ending.” * Dayton Daily News *“Krugler does an excellent job of evoking a Washington, DC mired in early Cold War paranoia. He paints a picture of a man with conflicting loyalties at war with himself. With an unexpected twist at the end, The Dead Don’t Bleed is a satisfying thriller I can easily imagine on the big screen.” * Historical Novels Review *
