Pressezitat
“With danger and mayhem at every turn—and Mackenzie provides plenty of twists—Stolen Lives is a page turner of superior power. Its shocking conclusion leaves the reader breathless—and eagerly awaiting the next installment in Jade’s life.” —Richmond Times-Dispatch“The second Jade de Jong novel by Jassy Mackenzie is every bit as vivid and violent as the first. Mackenzie’s turf is Johannesburg, in the new South Africa, but she has a much more jaded view than writers like Deon Meyer. . . . Mackenzie’s roots are in the grit and grime of noir fiction, but she gives the old style a twist all her own.” —The Globe and Mail (Toronto)
“Mackenzie offers insight into postapartheid South Africa, an area of the world unfamiliar to most U.S. mystery buffs. For those readers who like Sara Paretsky and Lynda La Plante and fans of international crime fiction.” —Library Journal, starred review
“Jassy Mackenzie’s followup to Random Violence delivers on all fronts that matter: dextrous pacing, unflinching action, and stark, brave compassion in the clutch. South Africa comes alive on the page, but it’s no travel-guide version—the Jo’burg skyline and dusty shops, the embassy offices and dreary mine-dumps—even the pristine suburbs pulse with dark energy. Jade de Jong is a heroine to cherish: tough, passionate, and pocked with enough flaws to keep her interesting."—Sophie Littlefield, Anthony Award–winning author of A Bad Day for Sorry
“Gripping . . . Stolen Lives is as thought-provoking and socially conscious as it is suspenseful . . . Without preaching, this book should cause readers to care, and perhaps even get involved in fighting the sex trafficking industry. A fascinating read with a strong heart.” —ForeWord Reviews

energy.” —Publishers Weekly
“Jade's sophomore adventure provides a crackling pace and nonstop action . . . Mackenzie's Johannesburg is as gritty and dangerous as noir L.A. or the drug meccas of South America.” —Kirkus Reviews
