The Guardian
"A future classic."
The Big Issue
"The future of thriller writing."
Elmore Leonard
"Run doesn't run, it flies. The style is terrific. What Winter does here is open a new school: how to write thrillers with a pace that takes your breath away."
Clive Barker
"Brilliantly conceived and executed...the sheer velocity of Douglas E. Winter's novel Run is breathtaking. An extrordinary achievement."
Mark Timlin, Crime critic, Independent On Sunday
"Run is simply one of the best novels of violence I've ever read...I really loved this one."
George P. Pelecanos, author of Shame The Devil
"With Run, Douglas E. Winter puts a battery in the reader and ups the ante for thriller writers everywhere. Run has the hard, shark-like sheen of a Richard Stark novel and the bullet-riddled kineticism of early John Woo. Plan to stay up half the night."
James Herbert
"The most stunning debut novel I've ever read. Superb in style, breathelss in pace. Run should easily be the thriller of the year, if not the decade...Brilliant!"
Peter Straub
"Instantly - I mean from the first paragraph - Run's language jumps off the page and sears itself into the reader's consciousness...Original in every way, Run is a masterly redefinition of the crime thriller, one in which Douglas E. Winter has discovered a voice that seems to come up from his heels."

Burdon Lane has a run this weekend with Renny Two Hand, and two hardcase killers in tow. He's moving an arsenal of handguns and assault rifles to Manhattan. What he doesn't know is that the government has a man inside the run, and what they don't know is that someone inside has a plan all his own.
