Reviews
“Shares is top-shelf crime fiction. Readers will like Frank and be able to feel his efforts at self-control. The villains are memorably evil, particularly Darla Bern, a stunning sometime porn actress spurned by Frank in the coed federal lockup, and Randolph Money, a clever white-collar savings-and-loan shark who is also a stone killer. The plotting is appropriately intricate, and the revenge is sweet. Gray, also the author of the excellent Bino Phillips mysteries, is an underappreciated master of the genre.”
“The set-up, execution, and payoff of a classic kidnapping is traced with cunning and skill in this accomplished novel…A counterfeiting plan, several nefarious double crosses and murders, as well as a spectacular showdown in a Santa Monica, California, beach house, lead to a satisfying resolution to this clever, clockwork crime thriller.”
“Though they’re working one of the most familiar plots in the business, these beauties have some slick moves in reserve…. And so does author Gray, taking a high-velocity break from his Bino series. Better set the alarm clock when you start this one; you’ll never notice the time flying past.”
