"This guy is the Master of the thriller genre. He twists a story quicker than a Texas Bronco coming out of a shoot. This was a good mix of tales, there is something in here for everyone, and not all stories will please every person reading the collection. His good old standby Lincoln Ryhms also makes an appearance. If you want to sample Deaver before reading one of his thriller novels I would recommend you start with Twisted."
