""The Whites" is the crime novel of the year--grim, gutsy, and impossible to put down. I had to read the final 100 pages in a single sitting. I began being fascinated, and ended being deeply moved. Call him Price or Brandt, he knows everything about police life, and plenty about friendship: what your friends do for you...and what they sometimes do to you."--Stephen King

"Richard Price isn't fooling anybody with this Harry Brandt business; only he could have written "The Whites." It has everything that makes his novels so wonderful--the dark humor, the intricate interleaving of character and plot, the deep research into the science of the streets, the moral gravity and the flawless, magical dialogue. Indeed the only credible thing to be said about Harry Brandt is that he has written one of Richard Price's best books yet."--Michael Chabon

"This is high-octane literature, with the best of Richard Price and his souped-up pseudonym Harry Brandt. Price/Brandt gets to the heart of those stories that everyone else refuses to tell. "The Whites" manages to patrol New York and deepen our sense of the city and all its dark corners."--Colum McCann

"Whether you call it a crime novel or a mystery novel or a giraffe with polka dots is largely irrelevant--"The Whites" is, simply put, a great American novel."--Dennis Lehane

"Fasten your seat belt... Old tragedies combine with fresh ones in Brandt's steely-jawed, carefully constructed procedural. Few crime novelists are as good at taut storytelling as Richard Price ... In the wake of rage and sorrow, ordinary people respond by going crazy and screwing up. In this far-from-ordinary novel, Price/Brandt explores the hows and whys."--"Kirkus Reviews"

"This is going to be a strong contender for best crime novel of 2015.... With one-of-a-kind characters and settings so real you can smell them, Brandt plunges us into the chaos of domestic life, the true agony of a parent's grief, the cost of secrets kept and revealed. He does it all with indelible phrasing that captures both the black humor of the on-the-job cop and the give-and-take of longtime married couples. While the finely tuned story engine accelerates, it's supercharged with complications...In the end, "The Whites "isn't about cops and killers so much as it is about the damage we all carry [and] the sins we've all committed."--"Booklist" (starred review)

"A gripping, gritty, Greek tragedy of cops, killers, and the sometimes-blurry line between them... Price is one whale of a storyteller by any name... The author skillfully manipulates [his] multiple story lines for peak suspense, as his arresting characters careen toward a devastating final reckoning."--"Publishers Weekly" (starred review)
