"[A] stirring police thriller."
--The New York Times Book Review
"A TOUGH-GUY TALE THAT ALSO SUCCEEDS AS A TEAR-JERKER . . . Boston author Charles Kenney has joined the small fraternity of crime writers whose insights into the undersides of their cities are as profound as their command of character."
--The Boston Herald
"A GIFTED NOVELIST . . . What drives this story is its accomplished portrait of a child struggling with the betrayal of parental suicide, and a most persuasive rendering of the power of faith."
--The New York Post
