Críticas

"Sly. . . . Pavone strengthens this book with a string of head-spinning revelations in its last pages. . . . The tireless scheming of all four principals truly exceeds all sane expectations." --"The New York Times" "Bombshell-a-minute. . . . Pavone creates a fascinating, complicated hero." --"Entertainment Weekly" "A gripping spy drama and an artful study of the sometimes cat-and-mouse game of marriage." --"Family Circle" "Smartly executed. . . . Pavone is full of sharp insights into the parallels between political espionage and marital duplicity. . . . Thoroughly captivating." --"The New York Times Book Review" "Superb. . . .

Pavone is spinning a fantastic tale with action that spans the globe." --"Dallas Morning News" "Highly entertaining." --"Mystery Scene" "Thoroughly enjoyable." --"Suspense" Magazine "Hard to put down." --"San Francisco Bay Guardian" "Stunningly assured. . . . An intricate, suspenseful plot that is only resolved in the final pages." --"Booklist" (starred review) "Brilliant, i
