Reviews

Goodreads review by Bill on March 31, 2020

Schemers—the Nameless Detective mystery I read last month—is a cut above most of Pronzini’s recent efforts. Betrayers—the novel I just finished—is a cut below. The first reason is Pronzini’s growing cast of regular characters, and the proliferation of their personal problems. Nameless, Kerry, Emily,......more

Goodreads review by The Shayne-Train on October 05, 2021

Getting near to the end now, I think I'm going to start spacing them out with books in between to make the endgame last a bit longer. I have never spent this much consecutive time in a literary world before, and may never again. This book, as with all the 'Nameless Detective' books, is amazing.......more

Quotes

“Sullivan, a veteran of more than a dozen Nameless titles, keeps it straight for listeners. He also plays to the humanist side of the characters as they pursue the perps of relatively low-violence crimes.” AudioFile

“Sullivan delivers a polished, unobtrusive performance and transitions smoothly among the characters. Recommended.” Library Journal

“Pronzini has taken to giving readers three cases per novel, one involving each of the agency’s three principals. And, as always, each case reveals a little more of each character, which at this stage of the series—more than 30 novels plus short stories—is the greatest pleasure of all.” Booklist

“Solid as ever, with funny, ballsy Tamara continuing to buff her role as designated scene-stealer.” Kirkus
