About this product

Product Information

""Quiver" is a spectacular debut....With a large cast of characters--each presented as meticulously as an Andrew Wyeth portrait--and numerous points of view, all funneling inevitably to a stunning conclusion, you will be holding your breath until the final page. Peter's dad should be proud."--Otto Penzler "A strong debut that combines a tight plot (about a deadly double-cross in the woods of Michigan) with memorable characters and dialogue--come to think of it, not unlike what Leonard's father, Elmore Leonard, creates."--"Seattle"" Times ""An outstanding debut....Leonard, the son of grandmaster mystery writer Elmore Leonard, deftly utilizes frequent flashback scenes in a tense tale that's easily one of the best crime novels of the year."--"East Lansing"" Journal ""The best parts of the novel concern the crooks, who, if not as gloriously quirky as those in Elmore Leonard's novels, are sometimes funny and sometimes scary."--"Washington"" Post""Peter Leonard's energetic style makes one forget the name Elmore and concentrate on the Leonard....Good writing may be in his genes, but the style's all his own." --Oline Cogdill, "The South Florida Sun-Sentinel"One of the most riveting and powerful new voices in crime fiction, Peter Leonard delivers a razor-sharp debut thriller. Kate McCall's husband has been killed by her son, Luke, in a tragic bow-hunting accident. While Kate struggles with her son's surly guilt, her first love, Jack, an ex-con, reappears, along with a crew of his former "colleagues." While Jack must convince his partners in crime that he really "did "lose the heist money, his appearance sets into motion a series of events culminating in a life-and-death confrontation with a gang of killers. Leonard displays remarkable maturity for a first-time novelist in both the plotting of the story and the language of his protagonists. The twists and turns of a love affair, an unrequited crush, and a kidnapping/extortion plot complement a tightly drawn, intimate cast of memorably quick and dim-witted characters. "Quiver" marks the breakthrough of a new force in thriller writing---an explosive and unforgettable debut. Praise for "Quiver" "With its clever plotting and blood-and-guts characters, "Quiver" will certainly put Peter Leonard on the map. This is the start of something special."---Michael Connelly, "New York"" Times" bestselling author of "The Overlook """Quiver"'s supercharged plot, rhythmic dialogue, and cool-under-pressure characters kept me reading into the night. An impressive, exciting debut from Peter Leonard."---George Pelecanos, "New York"" Times" bestselling author of "The Night Gardener" ""Quiver" is a surprise and a delight, a twisty deadpan troll through some very devious neighborhoods. I welcome Peter Leonard and look forward to whatever he wants to offer next." --- Donald Westlake ""Quiver" is terrific. I have to make the corniest admission of all: Couldn't put it down."---Mike Lupica, "NY"" Daily News" columnist "Peter Leonard's first novel, "Quiver," amply shows that he's the great Elmore's son. This book is a wicked trip with the creeps and pukes that inhabit the criminal world who collide with a convincing heroine. The setting in the rural north of Michigan is unique and engaging. I salute Peter Leonard at the beginning of what will obviously be a fine career." ---Jim Harrison, author of "Returning to Earth" and "Legends of the Fall """Quiver" is a terrific debut. Peter Leonard has a good ear for voices, a good eye for detail, and a talent for bringing together elements that can't do anything but explode." ---Edgar Award Winner Thomas Perry, author of "Silence"
