Summary:
"Kate McCall<U+2019>s husband has been killed by her son, Luke, in a tragic bow-hunting accident. While Kate struggles with her son<U+2019>s surly guilt, her first love, Jack, an ex-con, reappears, along with a crew of his former “colleagues.” While Jack must convince his partners in crime that he really did lose the heist money, his appearance sets into motion a series of events culminating in a life-and-death confrontation with a gang of killers. Leonard displays remarkable maturity for a first-time novelist in both the plotting of the story and the language of his protagonists. The twists and turns of a love affair, an unrequited crush, and a kidnapping/extortion plot complement a tightly drawn, intimate cast of memorably quick and dim-witted characters. Quiver marks the breakthrough of a new force in thriller writing---an explosive and unforgettable debut."--Publisher.
