Fall from Grace

Praise

“A genuine puzzle . . . Weaver’s shapely narrative plays fair with the grim facts, while maintaining a level of dread that properly suits the moody setting.”
—Marilyn Stasio, The New York Times Book Review

“Fantastic . . . Family secrets and past cases intertwine in Weaver’s intricate flashback-filled narrative in this twisty page-turner.”
—Cleveland Plain Dealer

“Reminiscent of Dennis Lehane’s Shutter Island . . . With his assured voice and strong sense of place, Weaver rewards our patience.”
—Chicago Tribune

“An unforgettable book . . . Tim Weaver has set up readers to go on a very riveting quest and saves the best for last, with many astounding disclosures wrapped up in the end pages. For those who want a mind-boggling tale filled with action, adventure, mystery, and chills, this book is a must-read.”
—Suspense

“Fall from Grace reads like a puzzle, and my brain worked overtime as each piece was revealed, but I still didn’t see the whole picture until the very end—a credit to Tim Weaver’s ability to craft a clever plot. . . . While packed with action and some last-minute surprises, this story’s greater strength lies in its understanding of relationships, and the harm that can happen when someone you once put on a pedestal finally takes a fall.”
—Mystery Scene

“A deeply felt, un-put-downable thriller. . . . All the plotlines Weaver has launched do indeed fit together, and the monstrous pattern that emerges is as devastating as in any of Ross Macdonald’s nightmares.”
—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

“Weaver continually keeps readers guessing while skillfully managing to tie together seemingly unrelated people and events. . . . Fall from Grace will have readers clamoring for more.”
—Library Journal

“Raker’s persistence uncovers some disturbing secrets and puts him in chillingly depicted peril. The bits we learn about why people go missing and what kinds of tracks they might leave are fascinating. An exciting puzzle, given added depth by Raker’s complicated character.”
—Booklist

“Affecting . . . As Raker presciently observes at the beginning of this dark journey, ‘Everyone wanted the truth until they got it.’”
—Publishers Weekly
