He was the undergraduate scholar-athlete of the year at Harvard for his pole-vaulting exploits, and played college soccer in England, where he was a Knox fellow. And now he is facing a horrible health issue that leaves him ready to take his own life. In this one, he takes a damaged and sick hero who has lost his family because he can't get beyond the horrors of the war he experienced or his PTSD. While completing a BA from Harvard (‘95) and a master’s from Trinity College, Oxford in Shakespearean tragedy (‘96), he wrote his first novel. This is another wonderful book by Gregg Hurwitz.

He has also written comics for Marvel and DC, tackling characters ranging from Wolverine to Batman. Gregg has written screenplays for or sold spec scripts to Disney, Paramount, Warners, MGM and many of the other major studios, and written, developed, and produced television (including ABC’s “V”) for various networks. His books have been nominated for numerous awards, shortlisted for best novel of the year by International Thriller Writers, nominated for CWA’s Ian Fleming Steel Dagger, chosen as feature selections for all four major literary book clubs, honored as Book Sense Picks, shortlisted for the Galaxy National Book Award, and translated into twenty two languages. Gregg Hurwitz is the critically acclaimed, New York Times and internationally bestselling author of twelve novels, most recently Trust No One, They’re Watching, You’re Next, and The Survivor.
