When the nominations are made for the best crime-novel debut of the year, we should be hearing her name again."–Washington Post"Rage is compulsively readable, a page turner with a believable hero like none I've seen before in crime fiction. She's powerful and flawed, needy and tough at the same time. The story is bold and surprising with twists and turns I didn't see coming. The ending satisfies. And this is just Masterman's first thriller. I'll be looking forward to the next."–Boston Globe "Wow. An absolute pleasure.
