Deadman's Bluff - James Swain [112]
“Great fun—with oddball characters, a twisted plot, and scheming dreamers out for the big score.”
—Lansing State Journal
GRIFT SENSE
“A well-plotted debut mystery that pays off handsomely…Grift Sense delivers a vivid and credible look at the gaming industry through eccentric yet believable characters.”
—Chicago Tribune
“Grift Sense is one of the best debuts I’ve read in years. It has a great plot, wonderful characters, and a slick, subtle wit.”
—The Toronto Globe and Mail
“The hard-nosed dialogue and the fast-paced, serpentine plot deliver a page-turner of a mystery. Just when readers start to relax, thinking it’s clear sailing to the end, Swain throws yet another curve.”
—Canadian Press
