Praise for The Price You Pay
One of Mystery Tribune’s 32 Best Crime, Mystery, and Thriller Books of Feb 2024
One of Milwaukee Magazine’s 5 Wisconsin Books to Read This Winter

“High-octane…Petrie nimbly combines small-unit action with cyber-sleuthing (courtesy of Peter’s partner, reporter June Cassidy) and rarely takes his foot off the gas during the narrative’s 400-plus pages. Adrenaline junkies will be in heaven.” Publishers Weekly

“Petrie shows off his action-writing chops with a series of vivid, remarkably clear firefights and, in between, pauses to recover.” Booklist

“The eighth danger-dripping crime thriller featuring Peter Ash… Action junkies will love this one.” Kirkus Reviews

“[A] high-octane action thriller shrouded in mystery… Nick Petrie provides an action-packed narrative that incrementally builds suspense and trepidation as he intertwines multiple plot twists into an explosive denouement. He utilizes a colorful cast of characters to enhance the intrigue…Action scenes are cinematic and expertly choreographed, with the results always in jeopardy.” Mystery and Suspense

“Petrie is a clever plotter who throws increasingly difficult challenges in front of his flawed heroes, allowing them to demonstrate their resourcefulness. He has a knack for wringing intense, violent conflict out of ordinary locations. After this book, you’ll never think of Walgreens and FedEx boxes the same way.” Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

“Petrie, a strong writer who always finds ways to keep his series fresh, continues to do a fantastic job with his cast of characters…[He] avoids classic and overdone tropes, opting instead to build his characters in a smart and useful way. They’re all relatable, too, for different reasons, and longtime fans who’ve seen these families and friendships grow over multiple books will be especially upset to see them threatened…Petrie delivers great action served up alongside a hearty plot that, much like the snowstorm earlier in the story, only grows bigger and more unrelenting with each passing chapter. Think Lee Child meets C.J. Box, and you’ve got The Price You Pay, a high-powered adventure dipped in action rolled in a mystery. Peter Ash is a great hero, and Nick Petrie is one heckuva storyteller-if you’re not reading him, start.”The Real Book Spy

“Nick Petrie never disappoints. This book is all action, and you will want to keep reading along. Fans of this series will be happy.” —Red Carpet Crash

Praise for the Peter Ash series
“Lots of characters get compared to my own Jack Reacher, but Peter Ash is the real deal.” —Lee Child

“The hype about Nick Petrie is real—he’s just that damn good!” —Mark Greaney

“Nonstop action at a machine gun pace.” —C.J. Box

“Peter Ash is one of the most complexcharacters I’ve come across in a long time.” —David Baldacci

“If you’re not already on the Peter Ash train, jump aboard now. Nick Petrie is doing headliner work.” —Robert Crais

“For me, no crime-fiction character has ever measured up to Jack Reacher—until, that is, I met Peter Ash.” Entertainment Weekly

“Petrie excels at propulsive pacing whilekeeping his characters compelling, daring, and,best of all, morally courageous.” —Minneapolis Star Tribune

“Nick Petrie proves himself to be a maestro, wielding his keyboard with all the deftness of a master conductor’s baton.” Providence Journal
