Reviews

"A deplorable villain, tantalizing characters, and a hint of romance mix with the twists. What more could a reader ask for? One hopes that Hayman will continue this gripping series."--Library Journal (starred review) on DARKNESS FIRST
"Hayman creates an intricate plot, engaging regulars, and suspects that are convincing. The suspense is pulse lifting. This is a well crafted thriller written to satisfy both men and women."--Providence Journal on THE CHILL OF NIGHT
"Hayman's pacing is perfect....THE CUTTING is an unsettling thriller, not because Portland and the state have a history of madmen killing strangers on a rampage. What's frightening is that Hayman makes it seem possible, even probable"--Bangor Daily News on THE CUTTING
"In THE CUTTING, [Hayman] gives readers a suspenseful police procedural whirling around a character who has the brains, courage and human concern to be the reader's hero from start to finish."--Portland Press Herald on THE CUTTING
"Taut, deft and with a delicate sense of place, this is supremely accomplished storytelling--not just another depiction of a serial killer rampage."--Daily Mail (London) on THE CUTTING
"The author had me guessing to the end. His plot crafting made me think of Martin Cruz Smith and Scott Turow at their best."--Portland Press Herald on THE GIRL IN THE GLASS
"What makes this novel stand out from other mysteries is the strong character based story with many twists and turns."--Blackfive.net on DARKNESS FIRST
