Praise for Getaway
"Getaway draws you in with the immediate force of its sensuous atmosphere, its living and breathing characters, its riveting plot—and most of all, with its sheer believability. Did you ever get drunk on a holiday and do one or two things the guidebooks say you shouldn’t? Well, this is what it could have led to."
—Lene Kaaberbøl & Agnete Friis, New York Times bestselling authors of The Boy in the Suitcase
"Brackmann strikes exactly the right mood in this frantic look at an ordinary woman who can't seem to claw her way out of the mess in which she's managed to land."
—Kirkus Reviews
"Brackmann follows up her debut, Rock Paper Tiger, an Amazon Best Book of 2010, with a sinister tale of a vacation gone bad . . . Puerto Vallarta provides a lush backdrop for Brackmann's richly drawn ex-pat world, which is as eccentric as it is dangerous."
—Publishers Weekly
“The ending fulfills several strands of the book without totally wrapping up others. It almost suggests the ending of the Tony Scott film, veering off into a half-fairy tale, half metafictional other world: Getaway's ending is more believable than that of True Romance, but it's open-ended and contains elements of wish-fulfillment in the same sort of way . . . Altogether, Getaway, due from Soho Press in May, is an interesting and entertaining update on the damsel-in-distress story (from the damsel's point of view) as well as the Ambler-esque spy thriller.”
—International Noir Fiction
Praise for Lisa Brackmann
“Lisa Brackmann’s novel gets off to a fast start and never lets up . . . Be prepared for a wild ride.”
—The New York Times Book Review
"[Brackmann] investigates the very nature of crime. She explores who really profits from it. And she does all this in a kick-a** thriller that’s nearly impossible to put down."
—The Arizona Daily Sun
“Timely and hip . . . Brackmann can write.”
—Boston Globe
“A pulse-racer.”
—Entertainment Weekly
