★ “Herrman has created a rare kind of book: a twist-filled murder mystery dressed up in leather boots, spurs, and a cowboy hat. . . The writing is compelling and visceral, with a multitude of colorful, complex characters, including the ferocious, canny protagonist. For readers who enjoy a propulsive narrative, this is a special one indeed. —Booklist, starred review
