“King’s writing is literary lightning!”
Caroline Leavitt, New York Times bestselling author of Days of Wonder and Pictures of You
“The tension builds throughout the book as James King skillfully intersperses flashbacks with present events. The dialogue is witty, the characters are profoundly credible, and the pace is high with plenty of unexpected twists and turns. I simply couldn’t put this book down.”
Carin Gerhardsen, International bestselling author of Black Ice and the Hammarby series.
“Extenuating Circumstances is more than just a great suspense story–and that it absolutely is. But, more so, it’s an exploration of family dynamics, both humbling and heroic, and how they can break us and, if we are lucky enough, also patch us back together, though not without some permanent scars to show for the effort.”
Gae Polisner, author of The Memory of Things and Jack Kerouac is Dead to Me
