Review Publishers Weekly:
DEATH IN BUDAPEST (February 2012) "Fans of hard-edged spy novels will hope that this outing for disgraced Wall Street banker Patrick McCarry is but the first of many from Ross (Long Pig). . . . twists straight out of a John le Carré novel. The narrator’s sardonic wit ('The skyway began to fill up with other nightcap drinkers, no more than half of them well-dressed prostitutes') helps keep the tone from getting too gloomy, despite the story’s basic darkness."
 
Starred Review Publishers Weekly:
HOMINID (October 2011) "Superior science thriller . . . taut atmospherics are top-notch."
