Why read it?

1 author picked In Defense of Innocence as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I have read a few of Dave’s books and the one thing that I absolutely love about his stories is the ability he has to pull me in right from the beginning. When I read his first book, it was like I could see it as if it were a movie playing out in my head. His scene-setting, descriptives, etc. are wonderful.

From Erica's list on mystery, suspense, and thrillers.
