PRAISE FOR OWEN LAUKKANEN
"Owen Laukkanen sure as hell knows how to tell a story." --Nick
Petrie, national bestselling author of The Drifter
"In Deception Cove, Owen Laukkanen gives you everything you could
want in a thriller -- rich setting, breakneck pacing, thrilling
action, a ton of heart, and a great dog. This is a
cancel-your-plans-so-you-can-stay-in-to-read book."--Rob Hart,
author of The Warehouse
"Laukkanen is a damn fine storyteller."-- Kirkus Reviews (starred
review)
"Owen Laukkanen is a powerhouse writer... Intimate and cinematic at
the same time. A must-read."--Alex Segura, author of Blackout
"Laukkanen brilliantly integrates psychological depth into a
suspenseful whodunit...The sophisticated characterizations elevate
this above similarly themed books. This thriller ranks with the
best work of Reed Farrel Coleman and Michael Koryta."--Publishers
Weekly (starred review)
"Laukkanen excels at showing the strength and resilience of people
going through the worst time of their lives in his excellent second
novel... Lone Jack Trail is rich storytelling at its best -- and
with a really great dog. This is a series that will only get
better."
--South Florida Sun-Sentinel
"They complement each other perfectly: the veteran's toughness, the
ex-con's humanity, and the dog's unconditional adoration of both.
All of Laukkanen's crime novels have tense action and layered
characters."--Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
