Reseñas de la Crítica

"The author weaves his engaging plot through Swiss chalets, Carribean marinas, Texas courtrooms and captivating characters before twisting readers toward a curious conclusion. In this romantic mystery, Manchee's killer seems so certain. Then a sail from the Bahamas turns it upside down. But what a ride along the way! ( The Book Reader)

"Manchee is as proficient as Grisham." ( Dallas Observer)
