Deaver, J: Goodbye Man Colter Shaw

Jeffery Deaver has more ideas for getting people in and out of tight spots than Carter has liver pills. -- New York Times Book Review

One of Bookpage's "Most Anticipated Mysteries and Thrillers" of 2020

[An] outstanding sequel to 2019 s The Never Game Deaver balances suspense and plausibility perfectly This is a perfect jumping-on point for readers new to one of today s top contemporary thrillers writers. -- Publishers Weekly (starred) 

The second Colter Shaw novel is even better than the first It s no surprise that the story has a lot of moving parts and just the right amount of twists and turns (Deaver s reputation as a master of the corkscrewing plot is well earned), and fans of the author s Lincoln Rhyme and Kathryn Dance novels will note the same attention to character construction and natural-sounding dialogue here. Colter Shaw seems certain to become an enduring series lead. --Booklist (starred)


The Goodbye Man features Deaver at his level best, wielding his computer keyboard like a magic wand to dazzle us. This is superb thriller writing, as compulsively readable as it is masterfully structured."-- Milford Daily News

  [A] gripping and ingenious tale of greed and deception in the American wilderness -- The Times (UK)
