Quotes

“With strong characters and a propulsive plot, this thriller races to a breathless finish before truth becomes collateral damage.” Minneapolis Star Tribune

“Just as in Boston, a bomb explodes at the finish line of the Duluth marathon—killing and maiming. Most people in Brian Freeman’s Marathon assume it was a Muslim terrorist. But what if the jihadist didn’t do it? A good read, albeit hugely disquieting.” Winnipeg Free Press (Canada)

“Freeman delves into this community being pulled every which way extremely well and delivers quite a shock before this fantastic psychological thriller comes to an end.” Suspense Magazine

“Gripping…Besides being a chilling reminder of what can happen in our divided society, the book is a fast, compelling read.” Publishers Weekly

“The well-thought-out plot here takes many different twists before the truth is revealed…Fans of the series should enjoy this fast-paced new addition.” Library Journal
