Story Behind The Book

Reviews

&quot;Jet-propelled...this twisting, stealthily plotted story...weaves a tangled and ingeniously enveloping web...[with a] killer twist for the end.&quot; <em>-The New York Times<br /></em><br />&quot;Last year belonged to Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code...this year's first contender for Page Turner of the Year is Joseph Finder's Paranoia.&quot;-<em>USA Today</em> <br /><br />&quot;Riveting...perhaps the finest of the contemporary thriller novelists, Finder is reminiscent of Michael Crichton, only with more character development and less slavish attention to detail...in the case of Paranoia, he's an expert on suspenseful storytelling that is at once slick and substantive...you may think you've read one mystery too many. Find Finder and you'll think again.&quot;- <em>Pittsburgh Post-Gazette<br /></em>
