The Silver Bear

Начало книги

“Well written, fast-paced, and engaging, this debut thriller seamlessly interweaves scenes from the past with the present to give a thrilling account of a professional killer at his peak . . . The cross-country hunt is a fast read; fans of James Patterson and Jeffery Deaver will enjoy.”-Library Journal

“[A] tight, swift debut thriller . . . reminiscent of The Manchurian Candidate . . . In chilling interior passages echoing The Day of the Jackal, the ‘bear’ explicates the cold-blooded methods that make him a top killer. All the while, Haas stokes sympathy for his antihero. Lean work, with every word counting and adding up to more than most authors land in twice the space.”

—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
