Kill Switch - Softcover

* "Lynch's writing, parched with desert-dry humor, is so fine that a breakfast table conversation is just as gripping as the paranoia-laced scenes of the trio evading a shadowy doom. A compact, frayed-nerves bundle of brilliance.--"Booklist", starred review

"A great premise, developed with brilliant prose...characters are sympathetically and vividly evoked, and the brief novel is a model of good writing."--"The Horn Book"

"A psychological exploration that leaves readers with just as many interesting questions as answers."--"School Library Journal"

"Lynch's masterly balance of life-or-death road trip and tender grandfather/grandson relationship makes this an unusual, first-rate thriller."--"BCCB"

Longing to spend a final summer before college with his aging grandfather, Daniel listens to his grandfather's rambling stories about a shocking past as an assassin until former associates show up to keep him quiet, causing Daniel to wonder if the stories are true. By the National Book Award-winning author of Inexcusable.
