Praise for Otho’s Writing

Another Otho Eskin thriller that delivers double the trouble, twice the action, and quadruple the enjoyment.
—Author Steve Berry on Black Sun Rising
Marko is a compelling character… The tightly constructed story moves along at a brisk clip… A complex, fast-paced mystery.
—Kirkus Reviews on Firetrap
High-energy game of cat-and-mouse…that offers plenty of thrills.
—Publishers Weekly on Firetrap

Those who prefer breathless action to careful reflection will enjoy this one.
—Publishers Weekly on Head Shot

Head Shot is … a thinking man’s thriller that would make David Baldacci or Brad Meltzer proud. Zorn is one of the most unique and colorful voices in thriller fiction today.
—Jon Land on Head Shot
Readers will look forward to seeing more of Zorn, a distinctive lead with his dry humor, clipped dialogue, and rogue tendencies.
—Publishers Weekly on The Reflecting Pool
The Reflecting Pool has the kind of unexpected plot twists and turns that keeps the reader’s riveted attention from beginning to end.
—Midwest Book Reviews on The Reflecting Pool
The best crime hero this side of Michael Connelly’s Harry Bosch. Woven from the fabric of masters like John D. MacDonald and Robert Crais, this riveting page-turner is never afraid to cut its own cloth.
—Jon Land, Providence Journal on The Reflecting Pool
