About the Author:
DAVID CARNOY is an executive editor at CNET and is interviewed regularly on television as a tech expert, appearing on CNN, CNBC, MSNBC, and other media outlets. He is the author of the acclaimed thriller Knife Music and lives in New York City with his wife and children.
Review:
Carnoy follows Knife Music with a thriller set in California's Silicon Valley that has it all: a convoluted but convincing plot, a likable protagonist facing terrible odds, and a meaty supporting cast working for and against him...this exceptionally satisfying murder puzzle should whet readers' appetites for more. Publishers Weekly, Starred Review.
"David Carnoy's debut novel was a surprise hit and his follow up, The Big Exit, is a knockout that will put him firmly on the map." --Harlan Coben
Carnoy's skilled backstory navigation in this follow-up to his well-received debut, Knife Music (2010), invites new readers to jump right in...the characters' round-robin of distrust will keep readers guessing, and the ever-present humor (ranging from sharp irony to snort-worthy scenes) warrants a recommendation on its own. Booklist
"Carnoy (Knife Music) heads to Silicon Valley for his sophomore thriller, but the story is as old-fashioned as betrayal, greed and murder. Colorful characters abound in Carnoy's legal caper...Carnoy knows the territory perfectly, and with judicious use of clever phrases that never distract from the crime caper, he's spot on with his characterizations, all of which seem both archetypal and yet sparkling with individual personalities and interesting back stories. Add an intriguing semi-red herring or two, and the climax comes with a satisfying twist. A first-rate crime caper." -Kirkus
