Critics Review
“Westlake proves that his signature wit and ability to turn out delightful banter can drive even a crimeless novel.” - Booklist
“Westlake proves that his signature wit and ability to turn out delightful banter can drive even a crimeless novel.” - Booklist”Minor Westlake is still Westlake, and his many fans will turn the last page with a tear.” -Kirkus”Fans of Westlake will not be disappointed in this perceptive romantic suspense novel…Westlake expertly proves the old adage that it’s better to travel hopefully than to arrive….This story is as wistful as the theme from old episodes of Taxi.” - Publishers Weekly”Westlake delivers his typical, engaging, page-turner story and dialogue and does so in a way that almost makes you forget that there’s no crime. He builds the suspense anyway, and the results are wonderful.” - Scoop
