South Florida Sun-Sentinel
A compelling, readable tale by one of this countrys premiere crime novelists.
Booklist
A tale that reaches back and forth in time, remarkable for the duplicity of its cast and the diversity of its twisting and turning.
Kirkus Reviews
Its film noir all the way. If a book can be written and read in black and white, this is it.
The Miami Herald
Evocative writing that combines the sensibility of a traditional noir novel with the unearthly mood of a ghost story.
The Associated Press
The novel peaks in aburst of satisfying action.
Publishers Weekly
A cataclysmic ending that seems ripped equally from the pages of history books and tomorrows newspaper.
The Raleigh News & Observer
[Randy Wayne White] raises the bar of the action thriller.
The Miami Herald
DEAD OF NIGHT
Enthralling and suspenseful.
Rocky Mountain News
Taut. Gripping. Fast-paced. Terrifying. A page-turner. Those words and more describe Dead of Night .
Omaha World-Herald
White has never been afraid of taking chances when it comes to creating push-the-limits plots and loathsome bad guys. But hes never gone as far on either score as he does in Dead of Night .
Sarasota Herald-Tribune
Frighteningly plausible Dead of Night is everything you look for in a thriller and moreWhites ability to evoke the feel of South Florida is second to none.
The Miami Herald
Plenty of action and dangermov[ing] quickly to a violent climax.
The Tampa Tribune
[A] horrific but shockingly realistic thriller plot.
Booklist
Deliciously addictive and nail-bitingly suspenseful.
Publishers Weekly
Edge-of-the-seat suspense Dead of Night quickly kicks a terrifying plot into gear.
Tallahassee Democrat
RANDY WAYNE WHITE
Whites writing is as muscular as ever.
The Tampa Tribune
Randy Wayne White and his Doc Ford join my list of must-reads. It is no small matter when I assert that White is getting pretty darn close to joining Carl Hiaasen and John D. MacDonald as writers synonymous with serious Florida issues and engaging characters.
Chicago Tribune
Enough twists to satisfy any hard-boiled but intelligent detective fan.
The Dallas Morning News
One of the hottest new writers on the scene.
Library Journal
Packed with finely drawn characters, relevant social issues, superb plotting, and an effortless writing styleThe best new writer since Carl Hiaasen.
The Denver Post
White is the rightful heir to joining John D. MacDonald, Carl Hiaasen, James W. Hall, Geoffrey NormanHis precise prose is as fresh and pungent as a salty breeze.
The Tampa Tribune
Whites Doc Ford seriescan always be counted on for an entertaining mix of character interplay and straight-ahead action adventure.

FOR WENDY
This book was begun shortly after the eye of a category 4 hurricane decimated the village where I live on the west coast of Florida. Captiva and Sanibel Island (where I was a fishing guide for many years) were also badly damagedbut not nearly as badly as portrayed in the national media. I am pleased to report that the islands are more beautiful than ever, and back to normal.
Even so, I spent most of the last year homeless, bouncing from place to place, sometimes country to country, trying to work while also juggling the details of rebuilding, and the relentless indifference of the insurance industry, and a few local bureaucrats. Happily, much good came from all the chaos, and I have many people to thank for their kindness and concern. Many dozens offered me help, even their homes. I will forever be in their debt.
Much of this book was written in public libraries, and I have become a great fan of library professionals as a result. I am especially grateful to the staff at Pine Island Public Library and also Sanibel Library. They were superb, and it was at the Sanibel Library where I found most of my information on the little-known hurricane of 1944. Many of the details in this novel, although used fictionally, are true, including Cuban fishermen who washed up on the beach, a man tragically set ablaze at his own moonshine stilland a beachside estate with its own family cemetery. The library staffs in Holmes Beach, Florida; Key West; Pioneer, Ohio; and Franklin, Tennessee, were also a great help.
