Praise for

STILL AMONG THE LIVING

“Matt Jacob, a private eye from Boston, makes his debut in a novel that offers rich characterizations…if he can resist the impulse to turn Matt Jacob too straight too soon, the author can keep his singular detective on good cases for a long time.”

—The New York Times

 

“I’d call it one of the best and certainly the most off-center detective novels I’ve read…Klein’s is a terrific idea—have Jacob work on two very different mysteries at once, the deep human disorders disturbing him and the case he’s called upon to solve…Klein’s private eye and his prickly prose are original. Savor ‘Still Among the Living’ and pray this is not the last we will read of Matt Jacob.”

—Boston Globe

 

“Matt Jacob is a terrific character with a lot of life in him beyond this book.”

—Globe and Mail

 

TWO WAY TOLL

“Entertaining…Matt Jacob comes across as a heartfelt creation…A refreshing character in a genre rife with male posturing and two dimensional psychology.”

–The New York Times

 

“[A] real payoff…The return of Matt’s whole entourage guarantees pleasure for fans of Klein’s first.”

—Kirkus Reviews

 

“Klein returns with another compelling tale featuring private detective Matt Jacob.”

—Publishers Weekly

 

NO SAVING GRACE

“Like Phillip Marlowe, Matt seems to take every case as an invitation to look deeper inside himself.”

—Kirkus Reviews

 

“Jacob is a man in search of himself as much as he is in search of solutions. When the perpetrators are revealed, the surprise is real and discomfiting; as the title states, the truth offers No Saving Grace.”
