Críticas:

Praise for "Kill You Twice"
"Utterly fresh and compelling. . .Cain hits the narrative throttle with all cylinders firing. Like the best thriller writers, though, she knows how to ease off the throttle, too, making room for subtle and satisfying character interplay but at the same building tension as we wait for the narrative to burst into overdrive once again. Masterful on every level."
--"Booklist" (started review)
Praise for "The Night Season"
"Cain's novel has headlong pacing, endearing characters, twisted humor, and scalpel-sharp descriptions of murder and mayhem. It grabs you like a deadly undertow and doesn't let you go."
"--Parade Magazine""
""High-octane ending. . .The world that Cain creates is as dark and ominous as ever."
"--The New York Times Book Review ""
""Cain kept me perilously on edge at all times, teetering off a watery precipice from which there may have been no escape. I cannot recommend her immersive work highly enough."
"--Louisville Courier-Journal""
""Cain's prose is taut, tense, and terrifying as this strange case develops and shudders with new details and twists. You'll never guess the ending."
"--Providence Journal""
""Superb. . .Cain skillfully incorporates the details of the real-life Vanport flood into her story... Cain pinned readers to their seats with a unique mix of horror, black humor, and psychological tension. This time she adds another arrow to her narrative quiver: the interplay between landscape and mood. This may be the best thriller set in a flooding city since Donna Leon's "Acqua Alta.""

""Superb. . .[Cain is] the new queen of serial-killer fiction."
"--Kirkus Reviews ""
""""Cain's fine fourth thriller. . .Cain easily weaves the history of the real-life Vanport flood with her trademark heart-stopping moments, and fans will be pleased to see the series flourishing without Gretchen on every page."

Reseña del editor:

KILL YOU TWICE
Chelsea Cain
Nothing makes Portland detective Archie Sheridan happier than knowing that Beauty Killer Gretchen Lowell is locked away in a psych ward. Archie can finally heal from the near-fatal physical and emotional wounds she's inflicted on him and start moving on with his life. Or can he? His latest case, involving a man who was mutilated and murdered in a public park in broad daylight, bears the stamp of an expert killer...and before long, Archie gets a message from Gretchen, who makes him an offer he can't refuse.
Gretchen claims to have inside knowledge about the grisly Mount Tabor Park murder--and Archie can't risk losing his only lead in the case. At least, that's what he tells himself after he agrees to visit Gretchen...But the ties between Archie and Gretchen have always been stronger, deeper, and more complex than he's willing to admit, even to himself. What game is Gretchen playing this time? And even more frightening, what long-hidden secrets from her past have been dredged up that someone would kill to protect?
