Hostile Witness by William Lashner

Hostile Witness

Praise
"Excellent . . . a dazzling debut . . . Lashner sustains a rich and nourishing flow of surprises, manipulated by an interestingly seamy cast of characters on both sides of the law."

-LOS ANGELES TIMES BOOK REVIEW

"A propulsive story. HOSTILE WITNESS has a good, gritty feel and a sardonic Sammy Glick protagonist that grows on you."

-PEOPLE

"Highly recommended . . . The best legal thriller I've read and one of the best contemporary crime novels . . . It has a moral complexity rare in genre fiction."

-FT. LAUDERDALE SUN-SENTINEL

"A stunning debut . . . not a single halting moment . . .[Lashner's] characters range from call girls to racketeers, drug addicts, politicians, public servants, abandoned wives, family histories and every note is struck just right."

-ARIZONA DAILY STAR
