If you like real nail-biters, this is the best one so far this year. (Stephen King)
Chris Pavone is the new best thing. The Accident proves the promise of The Expats. It is as intelligent and timely as it is relentless and gripping. Pavone is going to be around for a long time and now is the time to jump on the train. (MICHAEL CONNELLY)
Unputdownable ... Pavone [is] a reliable new must-read in the world of thrillers. (The New York Times)
A propulsive A-train of a thrill ride and [a] worthy successor to Pavone's debut, destined to make readers as compelled to turn its pages as Isabel and her colleagues are to publish the manuscript that spawned it. (The Los Angeles Times)
A fast-paced, twisting, smart follow-up to The Expats. Cleverly plotted, filled with surprises, a terrific read. (WILLIAM LANDAY, author of Defending Jacob)
A dizzyingly good follow-up to The Expats. The dark eruption of long-buried secrets, complex betrayals further snagged by sex and greed, and eleventh-hour desperate gambits for reinvention all propel a whirlwind story that will keep you up way past your bedtime. Crafty, stylish, satisfying. (PAULA McLAIN, author of The Paris Wife)
Chris Pavone's debut novel The Expats knocked readers on their ear with its superbly plotted, surprise-packed authority and it's a pleasure to find that its follow-up is every bit as accomplished...It is not just a strong successor to The Expats but a complex and involving novel in its own right. With just two books Chris Pavone has put himself in the upper echelons of the pulse-racing fraternity. (Barry Forshaw Daily Express)
'A breathless tale of a damning biography of a media tycoon - featuring murder and national cover-ups.' (Shortlist)
Brilliantly, the dastardly machinations, the devious ploys, the breathless hounding and the revealing of the truth are sorted out in 24 thrill-packed hours. Awesome. (Jon Wise Sport)
'A serpentine, sharp-edged thriller about a book that could end the career of one of worlds great media moguls.Former publishing editor Pavone piles twist upon twist, double-cross upon double-cross, but the resolution is sinuous and elegant.' (Geoffrey Wansell Daily Mail)
From Edgar Award-winning Chris Pavone, author of the Sunday Times and New York Times bestseller The Expats, comes a riveting time-bomb of a thriller (fans of The Expats will be excited to see a few characters from Pavone's first book pop up here as well). Taking place over the course of twenty-four hours, The Accident draws on the rich worlds of publishing, politics and international spies to tell a suspenseful tale of intrigue in the vein of John Grisham and Laura Lippman. In New York City, Isabel Reed, one of the most respected and powerful literary agents in the city, frantically turns the pages of a manuscript into the early dawn hours. This manuscript - printed out, hand-delivered, totally anonymous - is full of shocking revelations and disturbing truths linked to a car accident that occurred years ago, things which could compromise national security. Is this what she's been waiting for her entire career: a book that will help her move on from a painful past, a book that could save her beloved industry... a book that will change the world? In Copenhagen, Hayden Gray, a veteran station chief, wary of the CIA's obsession with the Middle East, has been steadfastly monitoring the dangers that abound in Europe. Even if his bosses aren't paying attention, he's determined to stay vigilant. And he's also on the trail of this manuscript - and the secrets that lie at its heart. For him, quite simply, it must never see the light of day. As Isabel and Hayden try to outwit each other, the nameless author watches on from afar. With no-one quite sure who holds all the cards, the stakes couldn't be higher: in just one day careers could be ruined, devastating secrets could be unearthed, and innocent people could die. As the manuscript moves from person to person, it leaves a trail of bodies in its wake. Gripping, sophisticated, and impossible to put down, The Accident is a masterful follow-up to one of the most acclaimed and striking debut thrillers of recent years.
