Praise for Quiver
“With its clever plotting and blood and guts characters, Quiver will certainly put Peter Leonard on the map. This is the start of something special.”
Michael Connelly
“Quiver’s supercharged plot, rhythmic dialogue and cool-under-pressure characters kept me reading into the night. An impressive, exciting debut from Peter Leonard.”
George Pelecanos
“Peter Leonard’s first novel, Quiver, amply shows that he’s the great Elmore’s son. This book is a wicked trip with the creeps and pukes that inhabit the criminal world who collide with a convincing heroine. The setting in the rural north of Michigan is unique and engaging. I salute Peter Leonard at the beginning of what will obviously be a fine career.”
Jim Harrison
“Quiver is a terrific debut. Peter Leonard has a good ear for voices, a good eye for detail, and a talent for bringing together elements that can’t do anything but explode.”
Thomas Perry
“Quiver is a surprise and a delight, a twisty deadpan troll through some very devious neighborhoods. I welcome Peter Leonard and look forward to whatever he wants to offer next.”
Donald Westlake
“Quiver is terrific. I have to make the corniest admission of all: Couldn’t put it down.”
