A Perfect Crime

Just how good is Peter Abrahams's latest suspense novel, A Perfect Crime? Author and reviewer Alan Ryan puts it this way: 'If, while you're reading the last 20 or 30 pages, you got your foot caught in a wood chipper, even as your pals leaped forward to pull you free, you would flap one hand at them, mumble, 'Wait a minute! Just a minute! I'm almost done!' and, without looking up from the book, read right on to the end. That's how good it is.' Sound good? It only gets better.

Each stage of this perverse puzzle has been constructed with deadly artistry. . ..Peter Abrahams gets the human dimensions just right.

Peter Abrahams is the author of The Tutor, The Last of the Dixie Heroes, A Perfect Crime, Crying Wolf, and The Fan, which was made into a major motion picture starring Robert DeNiro. He lives on Cape Cod with his wife and four children.
