“It was a joy to be drawn into Scudder’s world again. It’s one of those things you know is going to happen but is impossible to pinpoint the exact moment it occurs. One moment I was reading words and thinking about writing style and point of view and the next I was in the story, sharing Matthew Scudder’s thoughts, alive in his world.

“It was a thrill to read this collection of Scudder stories; this is Lawrence Block at his best. Here’s hoping he never stops writing.”
