Praise for The Watcher in the Wall
“Owen Laukkanen knows which crimes and misdemeanors are too
monstrous to be ignored.” —The New York Times Book Review
“A gut-wrenching tale filled with empathy. This may be the best yet
in a first-rate series. FBI agent Carla Windermere is such a
wonderful series character. Either she or the perp is going down,
and it damned well won’t be her.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred
review)

Laukkanen’s fans and for anyone who’s seeking a Lee Child–like
adrenaline rush.” —Booklist

on a cross-country pursuit . . . It’s a true page-turner up to the
final act, which quickly escalates into a fiery exchange of
gunfire.” —BookPage

Laukkanen propels the reader through to an exciting and satisfying
conclusion.” —National Post

thrillers, then you are just missing out completely on one of the
best authors in the genre. Laukkanen is a gifted writer who
delivers not just a thriller, but he also gives us strong,
realistic characters (especially his female characters) who make
mistakes, but they always keep moving forward, especially when they
decide not to be the victim anymore.” —Lynn Riehl, Nicola’s Books,
Ann Arbor, Michigan
“Don’t expect the hair on the back of your neck to relax any time
soon after you finish The Watcher in the Wall. Laukkanen is the
real deal.” —Bookreporter.com

an urgency that drives the book and its readers to a breathless
conclusion.” —Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel
