Raves and Reviews
"Readers of postmodern pulp will enjoy this intense story and unapologetically cunning character." ?Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"Close readers of the creator's oeuvre will catch connections to their earlier series, Criminal, but this one still provides plenty of truly twisted twists and wraps up with a pulpy punch of an ending that's satisfying—and heartbreaking—on its own... this stand-alone novella is a fine addition to a staggering body of work." —Library Journal, starred review
