"I loved that book. If you are a mystery/suspense reader...go get it. Very different and very exciting." – Stephen King on Dark Ride

"Shake remains a lovable, wise-cracking hero, and Berney does him justice with a cast of memorable supporting characters and a gorgeously rendered Southeast Asian locale. This sterling neo-noir series continues to deliver."
