PRAISE FOR THE BODY READER

Winner of the International Thriller Writers 2017 Thriller Award for Best Paperback Original

Absorbing.

This is an electrifying murder mysteryone of the best of the year.

Mysterious Reviews

I see the name Anne Frasier on a book and I know I am in for a treat... I thought it was a very unique premise and coupled with the good characters, made for an almost non-stop read for me. I highly recommend this.

Pure Textuality

The Body Reader earned its five stars, a rarity for me, even for books I like. Kudos to Anne Frasier.

The Wyrdd and the Bazaar

A must read for mystery suspense fans.

Babbling About Books

Ive long been a fan of Anne Frasier, but this book elevates her work to a whole new level, in my mind.

Tale of a Shooting Star

PRAISE FOR THE BODY COUNTER

Anne Frasier never fails at the perfect amount of suspense and relatable characters in her perfectly written storytelling.

Reader

Anne Frasier delivers in a stunning sequel to The Body Reader. As a serious lover of books, particularly psychological thrillers, I have learned that there are books and then there are reads. To me, a read means being completely sucked into a story that blocks out ones surroundings, and immerses them in the characters worlds. Anne Frasier does that. You cant take this along as a beach read or any other method that involves quick little bits and pieces when you have time. This kind of story is a true literary experience. You become a part of Jude Fontaine. When you read The Body Reader, you met a character so damaged, yet so powerful, that you felt like you were living her tragedy and ultimate comeback from being stripped of everything that holds a human together mentally. Frasier developed Jude so deeply in the first book in this series, and picks us up right where she left us in the second.

Reader

I thoroughly suggest that you take your time with this book. If its been a while, I would suggest you re-read The Body Reader so you can revisit the horror Jude Fontaine has already endured, before embarking on this journey. Truly, sit back and let Anne Frasier take you on a journey that cant be matched. I have never seen an author develop a character so vividly as Frasier does with the characters in these books. You feel their desperation, their isolation in their fight to survive, their will to live, not physically, but mentally. You feel their compassion that has managed to remain despite the evil they lived through.

PRAISE FOR PLAY DEAD

This is a truly creepy and thrilling book. Frasiers skill at exposing the dark emotions and motivations of individuals gives it a gripping edge.

RT Book Reviews

Play Dead is a compelling and memorable police procedural, made even better by the way the characters interact with one another. Anne Frasier will be appreciated by fans who like Kay Hooper, Iris Johansen and Lisa Gardner.

Blether: The Book Review Site

A nicely constructed combination of mystery and thriller. Frasier is a talented writer whose forte is probing into the psyches of her characters, and she produces a fast-paced novel with a finale containing many surprises.

I Love a Mystery

Has all the essentials of an edge-of-your-seat story. There is suspense, believable characters, an interesting setting, and just the right amount of details to keep the readers eyes always moving forward... I recommend Play Dead as a great addition to any mystery library.

Roundtable Reviews

PRAISE FOR PRETTY DEAD

Besides being beautifully written and tightly plotted, this book was that sort of great read you need on a regular basis to restore your faith in a genre.

Lynn Viehl, Paperback Writer (Book of the Month)

By far the best of the three books. I couldnt put my Kindle down till Id read every last page.

NetGalley

PRAISE FOR HUSH

This is far and away the best serial-killer story Ive read in a long time... strong characters, with a truly twisted bad guy.

Jayne Ann Krentz

I couldnt put it down. Engrossing... scary... I loved it.

Linda Howard

A deeply engrossing read, Hush delivers a creepy villain, a chilling plot, and two remarkable investigators whose personal struggles are only equaled by their compelling need to stop a madman before he kills again. Warning: dont read this book if you are home alone.

Lisa Gardner

A wealth of procedural detail, a heart-thumping finale, and two scarred but indelible protagonists make this a first-rate read.

Publishers Weekly

Anne Frasier has crafted a taut and suspenseful thriller.

Kay Hooper

Well-realized characters and taut, suspenseful plotting.

Star Tribune (Minneapolis)

PRAISE FOR SLEEP TIGHT

Guaranteed to keep you awake at night.

Lisa Jackson

Therell be no sleeping after reading this one. Laced with forensic detail and psychological twists.

Andrea Kane

Gripping and intense... Along with a fine plot, Frasier delivers her characters as whole people, each trying to cope in the face of violence and jealousies.

Star Tribune (Minneapolis)

Enthralling. Theres a lot more to this clever intrigue than graphic police procedures. Indeed, one of Frasiers many strengths is her ability to create characters and relationships that are as compelling as the mystery itself. Will linger with the reader after the killer is caught.

Publishers Weekly

PRAISE FOR THE ORCHARD

Eerie and atmospheric, this is an indie movie in print. Youll read and read to see where it is going, although its clear early on that the future is not going to be kind to anyone involved. Weirs story is more proof that only love can break your heart.

Library Journal

A gripping account of divided loyalties, the real cost of farming and the shattered people on the front lines. Not since Jane Smileys A Thousand Acres has there been so enrapturing a family drama percolating out from the back forty.

Macleans

This poignant memoir of love, labor, and dangerous pesticides reveals the terrible true price.

Oprah Magazine (Fall Book Pick)

Equal parts moving love story and environmental warning.

Entertainment Weekly (B+)

While reading this extraordinarily moving memoir, I kept remembering the last two lines of Muriel Rukeysers poem Kathe Kollwitz (What would happen if one woman told the truth about her life? / The world would split open), for Weir proffers a worldview that is at once eloquent, sincere, and searing.

Library Journal (Librarians Best Books of 2011)

She tells her story with grace, unflinching honesty and compassion all the while establishing a sense of place and time with a master story tellers perspective so engaging you forget it is a memoir.

Calvin Crosby, Books Inc. (Berkeley, CA)

One of my favorite reads of 2011, The Orchard is easily mistakable as a novel for its engaging, page-turning flow and its seemingly imaginative plot.

Susan McBeth, founder and owner of Adventures by the Book, San Diego, CA

Moving and surprising.

The Next Chapter (Fall 2011 Top 20 Best Books)

Searing... the past is artfully juxtaposed with the present in this finely wrought work. Its haunting passages will linger long after the last page is turned.
