An Amazon best book of the month in the Mysteries & Thrillers category
"Mr. Perry, in this first-rate thriller, proves as cagy as his criminal mastermind: The reader rarely anticipates his next move. He balances breathtaking suspense with romantic intrigue."--Tom Nolan, Wall Street Journal
"The intense thrills of Thomas Perry's The Bomb Maker are almost unbearable."--Marilyn Stasio, New York Times Book Review
"Perry's latest thriller promises to be twisty, timely, and pulse-pounding: It explores how a mind and a culture transform a simple machine into an act of murder."--Entertainment Weekly, "50 most anticipated books of 2018"
"Fascinating, sinister stuff...and Perry's depraved mastermind is all too creepily believable... you'll keep flipping the pages, ever fearful of what bloody horror will strike unlucky L.A. next."--The Washington PostThe Bomb Maker is typical Thomas Perry."--Lee Child, #1 bestselling author of the Jack Reacher series
"Perry is a prolific and talented fiction writer . . . The Bomb Maker, and Perry's seamless plotting and beautifully freighted characterizations, will win awards and be a keeper you want to read again and again."--Jeffrey Mannix, Durango Telegraph
"A thoroughly engrossing thriller, as well as a lesson in explosives."--Lisa Levy, Literary Hub, "5 crime must-reads for January"
"Thomas Perry, who has demonstrated time and time again over the course of a 35-year career that he is incapable of writing badly, pulls out whatever (invisible) stops he may have had and lets it all flow on this one . . . Once you start reading, you won't be able to stop . . . This is a masterwork by an author who always delivers more than is required or expected." --Joe Hartlaub, Bookreporter
"An explosive (pun intended) new book from an old pro. Thomas Perry has skillfully captured the super stressful world of the LAPD Bomb Squad, and gotten deep into the head of a mad bomber. This is the ultimate cat-and-mouse game, a story so tense and riveting that you'll find yourself holding your breath as the timer ticks off the seconds. The Bomb Maker is a unique achievement, a wonderful mix of psychological thriller and high-tech entertainment. Perry always delivers."--Nelson DeMille, bestselling author of The Cuban Affair and Gold Coast
"A brilliant novel! The Bomb Maker moves from first page to last like, yes, a ticking improvised explosive device. But it's more than a book that sets a new standard for page turner; rarely have we seen such a searing look into the mind of a very particular--and particularly fascinating--type of evil. And then, of course, Perry has given us lucky readers the inimitable Dick Stahl. What a hero for our time!"--Jeffery Deaver, #1 bestselling author of The Burial Hour and the Lincoln Rhyme series
A threat is called into the LAPD Bomb Squad and when tragedy ensues, the fragmented unit turns to Dick Stahl, a former Bomb Squad commander who now operates his own private security company. Just returned from a tough job in Mexico, Stahl is at first reluctant to accept the offer, but his sense of duty to the technicians he trained is too strong to turn it down. On his first day back at the head of the squad, Stahl’s three-person team is dispatched to a suspected car bomb. And it quickly becomes clear to him that they are dealing with an unusual mastermind—one whose intended target seems to be the Bomb Squad itself.
As the shadowy organization sponsoring this campaign of violence puts increasing pressure on the bomb maker, and Stahl becomes dangerously entangled with a member of his own team, the fuse on this high-stakes plot only burns faster. The Bomb Maker is Thomas Perry’s biggest, most unstoppable thriller yet.
