Advance Praise for The Kidnapping of Rosie Dawn
This book is fine in every sense of the word, for Eric Wright has always been the kind of writer whose art conceals art. The things he does well he does so well you hardly notice them, and Kidnapping of Rosie Dawn leaves the reader with a sense of effortless ease. Its witty, intelligent, elegantly shaped, beautifully paced, and every page is generously sown with pleasures of phrase and insight. Read and enjoy! --Reginald Hill, winner of the CWA Diamond and Golden Daggers, and author of Arms and Women
Eric Wright is intelligent, engaging, and stylishly funny. So is his detective, Joe Barley. Together, they provide a very satisfying read indeed. --K.K. Beck, author of the Iris Cooper series, the Jane da Silva series, and The Revenge of Kali-Ra
