Reviews
Hard to believe Central Park West is a first novel. It reeks of authenticity and the plot goes like a train. The courtroom scenes are tense and the cast of characters vivid and compelling. This is the sort of debut publishers dream of., Central Park West is a fine debut in the challenging arena of legal thrillers, and James Comey's next venture in the genre will be most welcome., A nonstop thrill ride! Central Park West is a masterful blend of legal thriller, police procedural and psychological drama. And it's populated with some of the best heroes and most evil villains to come along in years. Bravo!, James Comey combines his insider knowledge of every level of the justice system with a natural storytelling voice to create a winning debut in Central Park West. More books, please., A terrific legal thriller.... Comey knows this world and brilliantly shines a light on the machinations of justice., [A] gritty crime thriller of the highest order, steeped in the greatest traditions of post-modern noir.... Comey's debut offers us ample misdirection along with the kind of twists and turns that keep us turning the pages, in this case furiously., Comey's experience as a New York City mob prosecutor brings plenty of credibility to this fast-paced legal drama., James Comey's knowledge of the friction between state and federal agencies provides grist for the collision of two made-in-tabloid-heaven cases., [Comey] certainly knows the world he's writing about, but readers might be surprised by his skills as a novelist. This isn't one of those books that's 'pretty good for a guy who isn't a real writer.' It's very well executed: the characters are richly detailed, the dialogue is impressively realistic, and the plot is genuinely suspenseful.... Readers who deign to take a look only for the Comey name are likely to be surprised--in a good way., Central Park West is a great read. Brimming with been-there-done-that authority, it's clear James Comey knows this world like the back of his hand. And he delivers it with the addictive style of an expert storyteller., A kaleidoscopic crime novel ... solid and convincing, and its secret sauce is the lived-in details that can only come from someone familiar with those five steps leading up from Centre Street., It's undeniable that [Comey's] experience brings a plethora of realism to his first attempt at writing fiction.... This one will surprise a good number of readers with how good it is., James Comey's intimate knowledge of law enforcement makes Central Park West a winning legal thriller, but the book is so much more than an insider's account. Memorable characters, a gripping plot, and breathless pacing combine for a truly outstanding debut--one that announces a bold new talent in the mystery genre., Both a fascinating procedural and a courtroom drama, there is much to like about this novel, and how it rings with authenticity., I loved this novel. Could not put it down. Central Park West is a smart, nuanced legal thriller that truly delivers. It's a modern 'good guys vs the bad guys' story in which nearly all of the good 'guys' are actually strong, smart, steely women. It's a smart and satisfying read that I could not recommend more highly., An enjoyable and entertaining crime fiction debut. Comey imparts quite a bit of knowledge about investigative techniques and putting a criminal case together., Central Park West is a truly outstanding debut novel, a sophisticated and engaging legal thriller that grabs the reader from the opening scene and doesn't let go until the surprising ending. In between the author weaves an intricate and stylish story with vivid characters, playing out in a brilliant New York setting. Comey knows exactly how things work at the FBI and DOJ, and Central Park West opens a door into a fascinating and complex world of tradecraft, criminal investigation, political corruption, legal wrangling, and murder. I loved this book--highly, highly recommended! , A sturdy crime fiction debut ... Comey draws on his vast experience in the criminal justice world to bring a sense of authenticity to the setting and plot machinations.
Synopsis
A Newsweek and Reader's Digest most-anticipated read of 2023. In the thrilling first crime novel from the former director of the FBI, a murder investigation reveals deadly connections between high-ranking politicians and the mafia., A Newsweek and Reader's Digest most-anticipated read of 2023. In the thrilling first crime novel from the former director of the FBI, a murder investigation reveals deadly connections between high-ranking politicians and the mafia. The gripping crime fiction debut from former FBI director James Comey takes readers deep inside the world of lawyers and investigators working to solve a murder while navigating the treacherous currents of modern politics and the mob. When a years-long case against a powerful mobster finally cracks and an unimpeachable witness takes the stand, federal prosecutor Nora Carleton is looking forward to putting the defendant away for good. The mobster, though, has other plans. As the witness's testimony concludes, a note is passed to the prosecution offering up information into the assassination of a disgraced former New York governor, murdered in his penthouse apartment just days before. It's enough to blow the case wide open, and to send Nora into a high-stakes investigation of conspiracy, corruption, and danger. Drawing from the author's decades in federal law enforcement, including his years in Manhattan as a mob prosecutor and later the chief federal prosecutor, Central Park West is a fast-paced legal thriller with an intriguing plot enriched by real-life details and experiences. That unique perspective gives the novel much of its allure, but it's the unforgettable characters, shocking twists, and courtroom scenes as authentic as they are dramatic that will leave readers looking forward to more from this bold new talent in the genre., The gripping crime fiction debut from former FBI director James Comey takes readers deep inside the world of lawyers and investigators working to solve a murder while navigating the treacherous currents of modern politics and the mob.

Item is as described in post, great quality, clean, not damaged, great purchase. I'd like to point out that it was also shipped promptly, arrived on time, but the local post office refused to send me any notification of it arriving. Therefore I only got it today, almost a month late. The seller is at no fault, they shipped it on time. So I am highly satisfied with my purchase and the seller, highly recommend them for anyone on Ebay. Great books at great prices, amazing experience.
