Review Quotes: "Bolton is changing the face of crime fiction--if you only read one crime novel this year, make it this." --Tess Gerritsen on "Now You See Me"
"Really special: multi-layered and sophisticated, but tough too." --Lee Child""on" Now You See Me
""Although "Now You See Me" is tough to beat, Bolton comes close with this sequel. Readers will be caught up in the twists and turns that leave them hanging until the final paragraph." --"Library Journal" (starred) on "Dead Scared
""Outstanding . . . Bolton never eases up the tension; her tightly coiled plot and heroine on the edge work perfectly in tandem." --"Publishers Weekly" (starred, Pick of the Week) on "Dead Scared"
