"Hellbentis carved from the same cloth of not only Lee Child, but also David Baldacci, and it proves Hurwitz to be every bit the equal of both of them. This is raw, visceral action writing layered with rare depth and emotion, makingHellbentan early contender for one of the best thrillers of the year."-Providence Journal<br><br>"A beautifully crafted story that builds on the previous two books in surprising and unsettling ways."-Winnipeg Free Press<br><br>"Hellbentis Gregg Hurwitz firing on all cylinders."-The Guardian(UK)<br><br>"Must read!"-New York Post<br><br>"Where there's Smoak, there's firepower. The only thing better than a great book is a series in which each book is exponentially better than the last. It's not a feat that can be pulled off by just any author, but it's viscerally powerful when done right andHellbentis as right as it gets."-The Oklahoman<br><br>"This is a great novel... do not miss this one."-Booklist(starred review)<br><br>"As well-done as the rest of the series and bloody good fun."-Kirkus Reviews<br><br>"This one is personal... fans of the first two books will enjoy this nail-biting, twisty thriller."-Library Journal<br><br><br>
