Let the Devil Sleep (Dave Gurney, No. 3): A Novel (A Dave Gurney Novel)
“It’s always a pleasure to watch a keen mind absorbed in a difficult puzzle, which is how Dave Gurney distinguishes himself in John Verdon’s tricky whodunits.”--New York Times “A razor-sharp serial killer thriller…The third Dave Gurney whodunit is a breakneck, knockout ride...The tension is palpable on virtually every page of a story that perfectly balances the protagonist’s complex inner life with an elaborately constructed puzzle.”--Publishers Weekly (Starred Review) “A masterful bit of writing that builds to a surprising and satisfying climax.The tension and enigmatic situations created en route to the conclusion make this book a definite nail-biter.John Verdon’s writing skill might well cause him to become known as ‘The Puzzle Master.’”-New York Journal of Books “A brilliant and absorbing mystery…I love this series, as much for its thoughtful social commentary (on the media this time) as for its mysteries. Let the Devil Sleepis even better thanShut Your Eyes Tight…Highly recommended.”--Bookloons
