Industry Reviews "A deft storyteller, a master of pace, with a plot that pulls us along like taillights vanishing down a dark highway....the wisecracking, deadpan dialogue is as snappy as ever...sheer escapist entertainment." Dundee
"In 'Walking Shadow' Parker is near his peak form...In terms of dialogue, this is his funniest book in years." Dundee
