Praise
“Supremely entertaining…A page-turner, plot-driven in the extreme…It succeeds brilliantly.”—The Boston Globe
“Stacey Abrams delivers a taut, twisty thriller, drawing the reader into the hallowed halls of the Supreme Court along the strands of a complex web of politics, raw ambition and deadly deception.”—Nora Roberts, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Come Sundown
“While Justice Sleeps is a mesmerizing legal thriller that does the rare thing: It uses the novel to get at the truth. Stacey Abrams is a powerful new voice in fiction.”—Michael Connelly, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Harry Bosch series
“In While Justice Sleeps, Stacey Abrams firmly establishes herself as a powerful new player in the crime thriller space, with her heroine Avery providing a voice to women everywhere. Twisty, clever and full of surprises, this will be one to watch this Spring. Abrams proves she is not only a force for change in politics but a force to be reckoned with in fiction, too.”—Karin Slaughter, New York Times bestselling author of Pretty Girls
“Glossy, gritty, breathlessly suspenseful, effortlessly authentic, and altogether wonderful. Why am I not surprised?”—Lee Child, New York Times bestselling author of the Jack Reacher series
“A political-legal thriller that should hold the reader rapt from its opening line . . . to the extraordinary climactic courtroom scene that turns the plot upside down with ironic flair and utter conviction.”—Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
“Twisty good fun. . . . As the stakes rise, and murderous villains lurk, readers come to understand that horrific moral and ethical boundaries have been crossed. The unfolding morality tale, ‘the labyrinthine game the law demanded,’ plays out in the final fireworks scene at the Supreme Court. Abrams plays it to the hilt.”—The Christian Science Monitor
“Abrams’ debut is a pip of a thriller – a sweaty-palm sprint through the hidden corridors of government and the shadowy streets of DC. I fervently hope she will write many more.”—Kathy Reichs, author of the Temperance Brennan Bones series
“While Justice Sleeps is one of the best political thrillers I’ve read in years. It checks all the boxes: roller-coaster plot twists and turns, a fascinating look behind the scenes of the Supreme Court and other Washington institutions, nods to the latest trends in tech and medicine, and, most important of all, an utterly compelling main character, Supreme Court clerk Avery Keene. Author Abrams has given us a book that demands to be read in one sitting!”—Jeffery Deaver, author of The Bone Collector and Hunting Time
“A killer thriller. Loaded with legal intrigue, corrupt politicians, and the history of chess, Abrams proves why the most powerful piece on the board is the Queen. Well played and so much fun.”—Brad Meltzer, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Inner Circle
“While Justice Sleeps is a legal thriller of the highest order. Its crisp prose and high-octane plot call to mind the best of John Grisham, but Avery Keene is a fresh, modern heroine entirely of Abrams’ own making. Abrams is now on my ‘automatic pre-order’ list of authors. An absolutely phenomenal read.”—Cristina Alger, New York Times bestselling author of Girls Like Us
“When it comes to the law and the fight to save democracy, Stacey Abrams knows what she’s talking about. While Justice Sleeps also proves that she knows how to craft a compelling and suspenseful mystery.”—Mark Billingham, bestselling author of the Tom Thorne series
“[Abrams] displays her considerable talent for fiction in this gripping legal thriller. Shadowy figures….earth-shattering consequences….[a] deadly knot of deception….fiendishly intricate clues leading to a horrifying secret that implicates powerful and dangerous people. The buzz is loud and wholly deserved for this shrewd and exciting legal thriller by prominent voter-rights activist and best-selling Abrams.”—Booklist (starred review)
“Abrams keeps the plot churning, concentrating on the myriad power plays that go on behind the scenes as she brings in greed, a controversial merger between a biotech and a genetics firm, and self-centered politicians.”—The South Florida Sun Sentinel
