MEDIA REVIEWS
"Dead Man's Switch was a very intriguing book and I could hardly put the book down! Every chapter was interesting and suspenseful. This book will captivate the young adults who read it and I am looking forward to introducing the book to the older students!" —Dale Ketcheson, Early Years Literacy Support/Reading Recovery, Rivererheights School
"I could not put this book down. This thriller moves right along, from one perilous and nail-biting situation to the next. Not only that, but the book touches on major issues important to people whose future will be more and more wrapped up in technological advances—privacy, security, and power. I will recommend this for my middle- and high-school students." —Yvonne M. Lacy, M.L.S., librarian, Liberty Christian School
"This book is in particular suspenseful, a page-turner. It would make a great movie!" —Sandy Lange, Literacy Center Coordinator, Lake Pend Oreille High School
