questions about gender. Eskens reliably entertains."--Publishers

"The Stolen Hours is as good as it gets; a heart-pounding and
utterly engaging thriller that had me turning the pages at warp
speed. At the core of this magnificent and beautifully told story
is Lila, a strong yet vulnerable woman in search of the truth. But
Eskens cleverly lets her share the spotlight with two other women
whose strengths and weaknesses play off of and enhance each other.
Alone, each is a character that readers will identify with and root
for. Together, they're unstoppable. I loved this book!"--Karen
Dionne, New York Times bestselling author of The Marsh King's
Daughter and The Wicked Sister
"In Allen Eskens' newest thriller The Stolen Hours, there's not a
moment misplaced or a second lost. With the precision of a
watchmaker, Eskens assembles the fine parts of a mystery set to the
tempo of a thriller, leaving the reader breathless."
--Craig Johnson, New York Times bestselling author of the Longmire
Mysteries
"A riveting, hold-your-breath, frightening mystery. The Stolen
Hours is a thoroughly captivating legal thriller."

Wife
