"Praise for The Intruder ""Un-putdownable! My advice is to read this book."" -- STEPHEN KING ""The best novel I've read in years. It has great characters, a great story, a great heart. If you want comparisons, I can't give you any. There aren't any. I think Peter Blauner is better than Grisham, better than Patricia Cornwell. I loved The Intruder! Loved, loved, loved it."" -- JAMES PATTERSON ""An excellent book."" -- LOS ANGELES TIMES BOOK REVIEW ""Gripping... convincing... richly imagined... A harrowing, compelling read."" -- NEW YORK TIMES ""More than a story about a man protecting his family. It's about a man losing faith--in love, God, and humanity--and the possibility of regaining it."" -- PITTSBURGH POST-GAZETTE ""Chilling...Will keep pulsing in readers' minds long after the book is safely back on the shelf."" -- PEOPLE ""Uncomplicated, irresistible melodrama."" -- KIRKUS REVIEWS, starred review ""A tour de force."" -- PUBLISHERS WEEKLY, starred review ""Brilliant...A virtuoso performance."" -- ASSOCIATED PRESS ""The Intruder might be the best novel about the paranoia of living in New York ever written...One of the best pure-New York novels in years."" --NEW YORK DAILY NEWS ""Deft...nuanced...Blauner harnesses his astute take on the city to a solid thriller...The Intruder possesses energy and a real zest for the city."" --USA TODAY ""A knockout."" --DETROIT FREE PRESS"
