Brilliant stuff ... McBain's genius lies in his uncanny dialogue, his intelligent characters, clever plots and the way he can portray the human side of law agency procedures
McBain back on zestful, inventive and utterly compulsive form ... so topical that it practically sprints from the page
McBain throws in switchback plot twists and false leads like the consummate pro he is and ALICE IN JEOPARDY is a terrific page-turner
McBain is a perennial cause for rejoicing
McBain, the old pro, cranks up the tension to breaking point ... One can only sit back and admire
He's right at the top of the premier league of crime fiction
