Koryta stakes a claim as one of today's preeminent crafters of
contemporary hard-boiled mysteries.
*Publishers Weekly*
A nuanced, mature novel that proves both the depth of Koryta's
talent and the vitality of the PI genre.
*Laura Lippman*
Koryta is one of the best of the best
*Michael Connelly*
No one in the genre writes better.
*Kirkus Review*
[A] top-notch thriller.
*Booklist*
Stylish . . . well-observed.
*New York Times*
The appeal of Koryta's addictively readable narrative comes from
his remarkably realistic portrayal of not only individuals but
circumstances as well. There are no stereotypical characters, no
predictable plot lines; like life, nothing is pure black or white
but varying shades of gray.
*Chicago Tribune*
One of the best P.I.-against-the-world books I've read in a long,
long time. Koryta's dialogue remains vivid and his characters sharp
as a diamond drill bit.
*Crimespree Magazine*
A WELCOME GRAVE is much more than a well-written and suspenseful
mystery. It is a fictional snapshot depicting how law enforcement
and legal machines can be manipulated to favor the rich and
powerful at the expense of the poor and powerless - and the
innocent. Michael Koryta has crafted an exciting novel with
carefully rendered characters, even secondary ones, who will remain
with the reader long after turning the last page.

Michael Koryta is one of the most exciting new voices in crime
fiction.
*Mail on Sunday*
[Koryta] possesses an unusual gift - the ability to write a
sure-fire bestseller.
*News of the World*
On my must-read list.
*Dean Koontz*
Michael Koryta is one of our new dynamos in the world of books . .
. [he's] becoming a wonder we'll appreciate for a long time.
