Archer spins sufficient narrative threads for six novels, complete with ample money, Old-Boy connections, intrigue and a deus ex machina. What-will-happen-next reading."- Kirkus Reviews "No family saga would be complete without a villain, and this book has a good one, a well-drawn and believable character whose motivations are understandable. This thoroughly engaging old-school, multigenerational saga harks back to the work of Malcolm Macdonald, Belva Plain, and Irwin Shaw."- Booklist "Archer knows how to dole out tiny crumbs of suspense right up to the last page, which ends with... a really excellent cliffhanger."- Washington Post
