Richard Montanari, the talented American thriller writer, is even more popular in England and other European countries than he is in the United States. He’s often found on the Top Ten Best Selling Fiction lists in Great Britain and France. Here are some of the countries he’s been published in:

 It’s about time that American readers follow in these foreign readers’ footsteps and really start reading Montanari. You will not be disappointed if you enjoy the type of thriller that grabs you by the throat, keeps you interested and never fails to deliver engaging characters and chilling situations.

Start with his first published novel, Deviant Way.  Set in Cleveland, Ohio, Montanari delivers an evocative portrayal of the gritty city and leaves the reader wanting more. Before I read this book, my coworker told me the ending would  surprise me. That was all the incentive I needed to try to figure it out on my own.  To Montanari’s credit as a skillful writer, he had me fooled all the way to the end. I bet he’ll have you fooled, too.  Just give him a chance and enjoy this hard to put down read!
