From Publishers Weekly
Bestseller Perry (Silence) explores the psychology of identity through his characters' hidden lives in this solid crime thriller. After L.A. PI Phil Kramer is shot dead as he's getting into his car one night on a quiet street, his wife, Emily, and his staff set out to find whodunit and why. As they dig, Emily discovers Phil had many secrets. Meanwhile, Jerry Hobart, the hired gun, is ordered to kill Emily. Suspicious of his client's motives, Jerry starts investigating his client, who, the reader learns, is Ted Forrest, a wealthy playboy with a secret life. Perry initially shifts between Emily and Jerry's points-of-view as each probes different aspects of the same crime to zero in on Ted's motives. As Ted starts dominating the narrative, the pacing, usually one of Perry's strongest suits, slows, weighed down with too many characters and subplots. Still, Perry intrigues as always with spare, intelligent prose. (June)

From AudioFile
Perry's suspense puts a new spin on a familiar plot. Centered on the death of Phil Kramer, the story is told from the viewpoints of Kramer's widow, Emily, and the hit man hired to kill him, Jerry Hobart. After Phil's death, Emily is left penniless and asking tough questions about the man she married. Jerry discovers secrets--and the possibility of really big money--when he's rehired to kill Emily. Despite the interesting characters in the novel, narrator Michael Kramer makes little attempt to give each a unique voice. In fact, there's almost no shift in tone in Kramer's delivery at any point--he reads in a noticeable monotone voice that is more likely to put listeners to sleep than to engage them.
