Reviews
Fans of Sternbergh's earlier works will enjoy this story's clever premise, complex characters, and fast pace. Readers looking for a different kind of thriller with many twists and an explosive climax will also find much to relish. -- Library Journal A tense, broiling, twenty-first-century Western with a crafty premise. -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) Cleverly improvising on the chord changes common to classic westerns (especially High Noon) and evoking the locked-room horror of Jim Thompson's The Getaway, Sternbergh shows again why he is one of the most inventive thriller writers working today. -- Booklist (starred review) The Blinds [is] a thrilling Western unlike any you've read before. -- Vulture A quick-paced story of crime and deception...The Blinds is a thriller for fans of Westerns, Cormac McCarthy, and the Coen brothers. -- Dallas Morning News Adam Sternbergh is a genre-bender of the highest caliber. Part thriller, part Western, part pulpy whodunit, The Blinds is a propulsive and meaningful meditation on redemption and loss. It's witty, electrifying, vivid, and thoroughly original. -- Dennis Lehane, New York Times bestselling author
