Praise for Mirror Image
"Dennis Palumbo establishes
himself as a master story-teller with his first crime novel,Mirror Image.Using his
background as a licensed psychotherapist to good advantage, Palumbo
infuses his fast-moving, suspenseful story with fascinating texture,
interesting characters, and the twists, turns and surprises of a
mind-bending mystery. Very impressive."
--Stephen J. Cannell (writer/creator of The Rockford Files; New York Times
best-selling mystery author)
"Mirror Image
is a rich, complex thriller, built around a sizzling love affair. A
compelling read, with surprising twists and characters that leap off
the page."
--Bobby
Moresco (Oscar-winning writer/producer of Crash
and Million Dollar Baby)
"Mirror Image
is a deviously plotted thriller with lots of shocks and surprises you
won't see coming, and a smart, sympathetic hero-narrator who takes you
along as he peels back layers of lies and wrong guesses to get closer
to the truth."
--Thomas Perry
(Edgar-winning, New York Times best-selling crime novelist)
"Dennis Palumbo's experience as a
psychotherapist hasn't just helped him make his hero, therapist Dr.
Daniel Rinaldi, authentic, human and a man in full, it's endowed him
with the insight to craft a debut thriller filled with action,
deduction and romance, expertly paced for maximum suspense."
--Dick Lochte
(award-winning author and critic)
"Dennis Palumbo's novel is stark and disturbing
but there's a humanity running through the core of it that makes this
book special. Maybe it's Palumbo's dual training--as a writer and as a
psychotherapist--that allows him to plumb the depths and bring up not
only darkness but those occasional diamonds of light that sparkle and
illuminate and make a book worth reading."
--T. Jefferson Parker
(Edgar-winning, New York Times best-selling author of The Renegades and
Iron River)
"Mirror Image is a standout mind-bender! A
wonderfully constructed novel that has you seeing double--and all
through the eyes of an intriguingly fresh character: a psychologist.
Dennis Palumbo knows his craft. This guy can write."
--Ridley Pearson (New
York Times best-selling crime author)
"A gripping thriller, chock full of the desired twists and
cliffhangers, with the added layer and intriguing access of a therapist
narrator/detective. A page turner!"
--Aimee Bender (New
York Times best-selling author of An Invisible Sign of My Own)
