It’s great to see Edgar-Award winner Hart on the NYT list for the first time (his previous titles, Down River (10/07) and King of Lies (5/06), appeared on the extended list). Nab a copy if you can, it’s terrific.
The bookstore chain Books-A-Million endorsed it as their “President’s Pick”; it was selected by independent booksellers for their IndieNext list for May.
