Review
"* "Cemetery Road is a powerful novel. Beginning to end it never loses its grip... The book is a wonderful achievement" Michael Connelly "This is Haywood at the top of his game!" George Pelecanos "Haywood is our genre's best kept secret... Cemetery Road is his best book yet. You'd be a fool to pass it by" Lee Child "A thoughtful book, written with a layered complexity... And it's a helluva crime story, too, with plenty of surprises" Robert Crais "Lawrence Block's introduction and Jeffrey Deaver's afterword show us the esteem in which Haywood is held by his peers" Booklist on Lyrics for the Blues"
