Recenzii

"A rip-roaring page turner. A perfect read!"—Boston Globe
"Spellbinding...Ingenious."—Cincinnati Enquirer
"Marvelous...captures the reader from page one and holds to the explosive ending."—King Features Syndicate
"Martin's first novel is a clever and entertaining blend of history, family, saga, and mystery."
Publishers Weekly
"Martin has carefully researched the topography of old Boston and tidily balances his inventive plot with narrow escapes and stopwatch action, including a subway tunnel dig and shootout...a bracing brew for long cold nights"—Kirkus Reviews
