Praise
"James W. Hall ranks at the top echelon of Florida mystery writers....[T]he writer's solid plotting, affinity for characters and concern for Florida's ecology never fail to make for an exciting story....The superlative SILENCER continues those high standards while also exploring issues of loyalty and respect -- to family and the land."
- Oline Cogdill
