      —Publishers Weekly on In for the Kill

      —The New York Times Book Review on Chill of Night

      “Lutz keeps the suspense high and populates his story with a collection of unique characters…an ideal beach read.”

      —Publishers Weekly on Chill of Night

      —Harlan Coben

      —Tony Hillerman

      “Lutz ranks with such vintage masters of big-city murder as Lawrence Block and the late Ed McBain.”

      —St. Louis Post-Dispatch

      “Lutz is among the best.”

      —San Diego Union

      “Lutz juggles multiple storylines with such mastery that it’s easy to see how he won so many mystery awards. Darker Than Night is a can’t-put-it-down thriller, beautifully paced and executed, with enough twists and turns to keep it from ever getting too predictable.”

      —reviewingtheevidence.com

      “Readers will believe that they just stepped off a tilt-a-whirl after reading this action-packed police procedural…. John Lutz places Serpico in a serial killer venue with his blue knights still after him.”

      —The Midwest Book Review on Darker Than Night

      “John Lutz knows how to ratchet up the terror…. [He]propels the story with effective twists and a fast pace.”

      —Sun-Sentinel (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) on The Night Spider

      “Compelling…a gritty psychological thriller…Lutz’s details concerning police procedure, firefighting techniques, and FDNY policy ring true, and his clever use of flashbacks draws the reader deep into the killer’s troubled psyche.”

      —Publishers Weekly on The Night Watcher

      “John Lutz is the new Lawrence Sanders. The Night Watcher is a very smooth and civilized novel about a very uncivilized snuff artist, told with passion, wit, carnality, and relentless vigor. I loved it.”

      —Ed Gorman in Mystery Scene

      “A gripping thriller…extremely taut scenes, great descriptions, nicely depicted supporting players…Lutz is good with characterization.”

      —reviewingtheevidence.com on The Night Watcher

      “For a good scare and a well-paced story, Lutz delivers.”

      —San Antonio Express News

      “Lutz knows how to seize and hold the reader’s imagination.”

      —Cleveland Plain Dealer

      “SWF Seeks Same is a complex, riveting, and chilling portrayal of urban terror, as well as a wonderful novel of New York City. Echoes of Rosemary’s Baby, but this one’s scarier because it could happen.”

      —Jonathan Kellerman

      “Lutz is a fine craftsman.”

      —Booklist on The Ex

      “A psychological thriller that few readers will be able to put down.”

      —Publishers Weekly on SWF Seeks Same

      “Tense and relentless.”

      —Publishers Weekly on The Torch

      “The author has the ability to capture his readers with fear, and has compiled a myriad of frightful chapters that captures and holds until the final sentence.”

      —New Orleans Times-Picayune on Bonegrinder

      “Likable protagonists in a complex thriller.”

      —Booklist on Final Seconds

      “Lutz is rapidly bleeding critics dry of superlatives.”

      —St. Louis Post-Dispatch

      “It’s easy to see why he’s won an Edgar and two Shamuses.”

      —Publishers Weekly
