Nightlife

“Extraordinary . . . bone-chilling . . . [a] tight, transfixing crime story [with] suspenseful chessboard plotting.”—The New York Times

“A fast-paced thriller . . . tightly plotted, with a lot of action and plenty of twists.”—The Denver Post

“Superbly suspenseful . . . Instilling dread may be cruel work, but [Perry is] the man for the job.”—New York Daily News

“The action flows swiftly and, like a finely chilled martini, Nightlife turns out to be hard to put down.”—The Miami Herald

“There are probably only half a dozen suspense writers now alive who can be depended upon to deliver high-voltage shocks, vivid, sympathetic characters, and compelling narratives each time they publish. Thomas Perry is one of them. Nightlife, his tale of a female serial killer who starts hunting the female police officer trying to catch her, is original and highly entertaining. I can’t imagine any reader finishing this and thinking he or she didn’t get his or her money’s worth. And it’s scary! I say that with deep admiration.”—Stephen King

“Perry’s dialogue is strong as steel and the story paced faster than a late-night bullet. Thrillers just don’t get any better than this one.”—Lorenzo Carcaterra, author of Sleepers
