“Abbott is one of the preeminent writers of thrillers involving ordinary people caught up in unusual and dangerous situations. He’s the equal of Harlen Coben and Linwood Barclay, and lately he’s been on a roll… AN AMBUSH OF WIDOWS continues that trend, delivering two irresistible lead characters, a shrewd villain, and a story that defies our expectations. Great stuff.” – Booklist, starred review

“Abbott adroitly shifts perspectives to raise the suspense. Lisa Unger fans will be pleased.” – Publishers Weekly

Those who enjoy unpredictable stories can never go wrong diving into the world of Jeff Abbott.”―Washington Post
