The Run (37 page)
“A whale of a story.”
New York Times
“High-stakes espionage…. A solid winner.”
United Press International
DEAD IN THE WATER
“Fast-paced, filled with enough humor, sex and clever surprises all the way to the last page to make it thoroughly entertaining amusement.”
Publishers Weekly
“A man lost at sea, a small airplane crash, some impassioned sexual antics, and a tropical island…. One of[his] best…. Woods is a pro and this goes by like a summer breeze, with just enough heat to make you sweat.”
Detroit News
“Trying to make this neat tale last more than one sitting would be like staying up all night nursing a Godiva truffle.”
Kirkus Reviews
(*Starred Review*)
DIRT
“Blackmail, murder, suspense, love—what else could you want in a book?”
Cosmopolitan
“This slickly entertaining suspenser displays Woods at the top of his game…. Woods delivers a marvelously sophisticated, thoroughly modern old-fashioned read.”
Publishers Weekly
(*Starred Review*)
CHOKE
“Woods knows how to keep the narrative pace in overdrive…. An entertaining page-turner.”
New York Times Book Review
“A real page-turner with surprises along the way.”
Boston Globe
“Woods is a no-nonsense, slam-bang storyteller.”
Chicago Tribune
IMPERFECT STRANGERS
“Woods does show a reader a good time.”
Washington Post Book World
“Engages the reader’s imagination in an unconventional way. Compels us, in our mind’s eye, to place the novel’s events on the silver screen in the shadow of a latter-day Hitchcock, and somehow it works.”
