Praise for

A SUPERIOR DEATH

“Barr writes in a tangled, rich, descriptive language . . . it has an engrossing pull that gives a vivid feel for the terrain and those who have found their niche in this rather forbidding, gloomy, and chilling landscape . . . A wonderfully satisfying read.”

—The Washington Post Book World

“An engrossing story of death and deceit . . . [an] absorbing novel.”

—The Dallas Morning News

“A vivid finish.”

—Los Angeles Times

“Barr crafts a cunning mystery, and, as usual, her writing about the natural landscape and its history is magical.”

—The Orlando Sentinel

“One of the best . . . Barr weaves mystery with social and political themes . . . and consistently entertains.”

—U.S. News & World Report

“Barr is a gifted storyteller with a nice sense of plotting and a nearpoet’s touch when it comes to describing primitive Superior country, a land of soaring bluffs, coves, deep forests, and beckoning islands.”

—The Buffalo News

“The final revelation of culprit and motive will surprise all but the most alert readers. A crackling good mystery, fleshed out by a detective and a supporting cast far more human than they need to be.”—Kirkus Reviews

Praise for

NEVADA BARR

and the award-winning Anna Pigeon novels . . .

“Nevada Barr is one of the best.”—The Boston Globe“A constant source of pleasure.”—San Francisco Chronicle

“Nevada Barr writes with a cool, steady hand about the violence of nature and the cruelty of man.”

—The New York Times Book Review

“A true [original . . . like](original . . . like) a combination of Henry David Thoreau, Mark Twain, Sherlock Holmes, and Maureen O’Hara, the engaging character of Anna Pigeon is the only reason most readers will need to return to this series again and again. But it doesn’t hurt that Barr can write rhapsodic passages about America’s beautiful parks and cobble up page-turning whodunits.”—The Denver Post

“Nevada Barr can take the most improbable plot and turn it into a fascinating foray into the human psyche, then dress it up with eloquent description of the great outdoors she so obviously adores . . . She’s also oneof the more eloquent mystery writers around, having the ability to make you feel the chill of the night, smell the smoke of a campfire, experience the isolation of the wilderness. She’s worth reading just for that alone.”—Chicago Tribune

“Barr combines primo mysteries with what always feels like a virtual reality tour of one of the parks . . . There is beauty here. Still, Anna never loses her edginess in a world where your life depends on having a backup light foryour backup light.”—Detroit Free Press

“There truly is no finer writer in the realm today, and her descriptive prose in observance of the natural world is always stunning.”—Pages

“From the fabric of fiction she creates real worlds, sometimes beautiful, sometimes terrifying, but always convincing.”

—The San Diego Union-Tribune
