“[Kellerman is] eloquent on the topics of social and religious tolerance. With such a knack for intimate conversation, the author has no trouble tapping into those domestic tensions that can turn ugly and cruel, even murderous.”

The New York Times Book Review

“Thought provoking and complex.”

Seattle Times

“Much fun…PRAYERS FOR THE DEAD delivers what readers have come to expect from Kellerman: a good mystery, well-developed characters, an intriguing plot.”

Knoxville News-Sentinel

“A tightly written mystery…The popularity of the series proves that readers want stories about real relationships.”

Atlanta Journal and Constitution

“She never disappoints. Kellerman delivers a stunning conclusion to her best book yet.”

“Plotting as sumptuous as P.D. James.”

Kirkus Reviews (*Starred Review*)

“Faye Kellerman does it again…From its opening pages, the mystery engages the reader’s attention and doesn’t let it go…Put aside a block of free time before you pick up PRAYERS FOR THE DEAD. You won’t be able to put it down until you finish it.”

Manchester Journal Inquirer
