Worldwide Acclaim for The Truth About the Harry Quebert Affair France "If you dip your toes into this major novel, you're finished: you won't be able to keep from sprinting through to the last page. You will be manipulated, thrown off course, flabbergasted and amazed by the many twists and turns, red herrings and sudden changes of direction in this exuberant story." -Le Journal du Dimanche "A funny, intelligent, breathtaking book within a book . . . There is a real joy in discovering this extraordinary novel." - Lire "A master stroke . . . A crime novel with not one plot line but many, full of shifting rhythms, changes of course and multiple layers that, like a Russian doll, slot together beautifully . . . In maestro form, Dicker alternates periods and genres (police reports, interviews, excerpts from novels) and explores America in all its excesses-media, literary, religious-all the while questioning the role of the literary writer." -L'Express "The success story of the literary season . . . An American thriller reminiscent of the best work of Truman Capote." - Paris-Match "Dizzying, like the best American thrillers . . . Rich in subplots and twists, moving backwards and forwards in time, containing books within books." - Le Figaro Italy "After The Truth About the Harry Quebert Affair, the contemporary novel will no longer be the same. Verdict: summa cum laude. . . . A beautiful novel." - Corriere della Sera "Narrative talent is about making a work of art out of life. Dicker has got it." - Vanity Fair Germany "A book within a book, a crime novel, a love story. Extraordinary." - Cosmopolitan "Brilliantly narrated." - Stern Switzerland "A novel with all the ingredients of a global bestseller." - Die Zeit The Netherlands "A story brimming with such intelligence and subtlety that you can only regret that it has to end. A novel that works on so many levels: a crime story, a love story, a comedy of manners, but equally an incisive critique of the art of the modern author." - Elsevier "A novel that calls to mind the journalistic investigations of Truman Capote, the murder plots of Donna Tartt and the romantic scandal of Nabakov's Lolita. " - NRC NEXT "Packed with action, psychological drama and . . . extraordinary suspense." - NRC Handelsblad "Captivating and enchanting . . . a true literary adventure." - Algemeen Dagblad "Wonderful dialogue, colorful characters, breathtaking twists and a plot that allows no pause for breath . . . Everything is perfectly woven together to create an irresistible story in which absolutely nothing is as it seems." - Trouw Spain "Never have I felt so compelled to recommend a book this highly. . . . I was mesmerized and fascinated long after I had finished reading. . . . It has echoes of Twin Peaks and Death on the Staircase, John Grisham, Psycho, The Exorcist, and The Hotel New Hampshire by John Irving." - La Vanguardia "This book will be celebrated and studied by future writers. It is a model thriller." - El Periódico de Catalunya "Masterful . . . The great thriller that everyone has been waiting for since the Millennium Trilogy of Stieg Larsson." - El Cultural de El Mundo England "The cleverest, creepiest book you'll read this year . . . The most talked-about French novel of the decade . . . Breathtakingly plotted . . . Addictively fast . . . It's like Twin Peaks meets Atonement meets In Cold Blood. . . . The New England setting [is] immersively convincing. . . . Very few foreign-language novels make big waves in Anglophone countries, but this one seems genuinely likely to buck the trend." - The Telegraph, Acclaim from Around the World for The Truth About the Harry Quebert Affair France "If you put your nose in this big novel, you're finished. You won't be able to keep from sprinting through its six hundred pages. You will be manipulated, baffled, and amazed by the many twists and turns, the red herrings and sudden changes of direction, of this impassioned story." - Le Journal du Dimanche (France) "A funny, intelligent, breathtaking book within a book . . . There is a real jubilation in discovering this extraordinary novel. - Lire (France) "The success story of the literary season . . . An American thriller similar to the best work of Truman Capote: In Cold Blood . " - Paris-Match (France) "A masterpiece! In maestro form, Dicker alternates periods and genres (police reports, interviews, excerpts from novels) and explores America in all its excesses-media, literary, religious-all the while questioning the role of the literary writer." - L'Express (France) "Dizzying, like the best American thrillers . . . Rich in subplots and twists, moving backwards and forward in time, containing books within books." - Le Figaro (France) Italy "After The Truth About the Harry Quebert Affair the contemporary novel will no longer be the same. Grade: summa cum laude." - Corriere della Sera (Italy) "Narrative talent is about making a work of art from life. Dicker has got it." - Vanity Fair (Italy) Spain "The great thriller that everyone has been waiting for since the Millennium Trilogy of Stieg Larsson . . . A novel that is not a novel, it is a battle. As every great book should be." - El Cultural de El Mundo (Spain) "This book will be celebrated and studied among future writers. It is a model thriller." - El Periódico de Catalunya (Spain) 'Never has a book been so strongly recommended . . . It has echoes of Twin Peaks and Death on the Staircase, John Grisham, Psycho, The Exorcist, and The Hotel New Hampshire by John Irving." - La Vanguardia (Spain) Germany "A book within a book, a crime novel, a love story. Extraordinary!" - Cosmopolitan (Germany) "Brilliantly narrated." - Stern (Germany) Switzerland "A novel with all the ingredients of a global bestseller." - Die Zeit (Switzerland), "A playful, page-turning whodunit . . . If Norman Mailer had been accused of murder and Truman Capote had collaborated with Dominick Dunne on a tell-all about it, the result might have turned out something like this. Though I suspect this version may be funnier. . . . It''s [Dicker''s] light touch and engaging voice that make the writing so infectious." -- Chelsea Cain, The New York Times Book Review "The great American crime novel . . . A breakneck thriller." -- Details "A terrific read . . . Entertaining . . . Cleverly constructed . . . It''s compelling, challenging, sometimes even funny. The characters are finely drawn. . . . It keeps you, as they say of movies, ''on the edge of your seat.'' " -- The Huffington Post "A wonderful, fun, and boisterous read, a book with an uncanny ability to both fascinate and amuse you. Twists and turns and oddball characters make this a rollicking bullet-train of a novel." -- Amazon.com, Best Book of the Month "I haven''t had a suspense novel surprise me like this one in a long time. Joël Dicker is a bright new star of suspense, and he proves his serious chops with this utterly thrilling, delightfully twisted, continually shocking novel. I can''t wait to read what he writes next!" -- Lisa Gardner, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Fear Nothing "A dazzling thriller--stunningly original and brilliantly plotted, down to the very last twists. It''s a murder mystery, a literary puzzle, and a love story, all ingeniously woven into a masterly novel of suspense. Joël Dicker is an enormous talent, and this book is extraordinary." -- Linda Fairstein, New York Times bestselling author of Death Angel "Talk about a web of treason and danger: This one unfolds with a relentless sense of urgency and pulse-pounding escapades, entertaining at every turn. Absolutely rousing." -- Steve Berry, New York Times bestselling author of The King''s Deception "Planes, trains and automobiles: You''ll see people reading this book everywhere. An amazing debut and wonderful summer read." -- Michael Harvey, bestselling author of The Chicago Way "Entertainingly pulled off . . . Enjoyable . . . It churns along at such a good clip and is rendered with such high emotion and apparent deep conviction that it''s easy to see why it was a bestseller in Europe." -- The Washington Post "A highly entertaining mash-up of melodrama, metafiction and mystery [with] a slick page-turning plot." -- Minneapolis Star Tribune "Charmingly off-kilter . . . Sure-footed." -- The Daily Beast "[A] funny, plot-twisting mystery." -- Women''s Day, "New Favorites from the Women''s Day Staff" "Stunning . . . Fast-paced, tightly plotted . . . From page one, you''ll be hooked on this fascinating mystery of love and deception." -- National Examiner "Smart and fun." -- Houston Chronicle "A clever, tightly plotted thriller with a comic edge." -- Tampa Bay Times "An ambitious, multilayered novel of suspense . . . This tale of fame, friendship, loyalty, and fiction versus reality moves at warp speed." -- Publishers Weekly , starred review "This sprawling, likable whodunit [is] obvious ballast for the summer''s beach totes. . . . Dicker keeps the prose simple and the pace snappy in a plot that winds up with more twists than a Twizzler. . . . [An] entertaining debut thriller." -- Kirkus Reviews "Tantalizing . . . Compelling . . . There is a Twin Peaks -like fascination to the story of Nola Kellergan. . . . Readers are certain to be caught up in the ongoing drama of who killed Nola among the plethora of suspects." -- Booklist, Worldwide Acclaim for The Truth About the Harry Quebert Affair U.S. "This sprawling, likable whodunit [is] obvious ballast for the summer's beach totes. . . .
