HASH(0x90d95798) out of 5 stars Knife Music 7 April 2009
By T. Molakides - Published on Amazon.com
Format: Paperback
As a retired police detective, I am probably more critical than most when it comes to mystery novels. I found Knife Music's storyline not only riveting but technically correct. Knife Music was fast paced and difficult to put down. I highly recommend it.

HASH(0x90d957ec) out of 5 stars Impossible to put down ... consider yourself warned! 23 Nov. 2008
By Amazon Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
I could not put this book down! The suspense was killing me ... and, I really was rooting for several of the characters, despite the fact that they were adversaries! They were so believable, and so human, and so admirable yet flawed. The book made me think, and at the same time, totally swept me away into that wonderful place that only books can create where you aren't thinking at all. Now, I feel the need to re-read the book to put it all together, or at least debrief with someone else who has read the book. Definitely a book I highly recommend, and one I plan to include in several Christmas presents!

HASH(0x90d958ac) out of 5 stars Terrific Thriller that Keeps You Turning the Pages 6 Oct. 2008
By Seth Gross - Published on Amazon.com
Format: Paperback
David Carnoy's "Knife Music" skillfully cuts open the life of a privileged surgeon and lays bare an intriguing mystery of deceit, anxiety, and betrayal. Dr. Ted Cogan's efforts to clear his name and come to terms with his darker nature, intercut with Detective Hank Madden's obsessive efforts to nail Cogan at any cost, reminded me of a great Hitchcockian thriller, on par with "Strangers on a Train" or "Rope."

Even though the novel is very well-paced, Carnoy doesn't skimp on character. Cogan, Madden, and Kristen (who comes to life through her chilling diary entries) all feel real. We care about their story because we see ourselves in them. Like Harlan Coben, who writes similar domestic thrillers, Carnoy is very adept at servicing character while not short-changing storytelling.

I highly recommend "Knife Music" for anyone who likes a great thriller that is also well-written. Carnoy's sharp prose and taut structure create a fast, compelling read that keeps you turning pages until the shocking ending. And the final twist packs a wallop that will remind readers of "Presumed Innocent,"except "Knife Music" may even cut deeper than that Scott Turow classic.

This is a fantastic read and a gift to thriller readers everywhere. It is well written, fast paced and will have you totally surprised by the ending. Carnoy is a remarkable writer who manages to weave the story together in a way that will have you hoping for more time to keep reading. He has a gift for telling a truly suspenseful story with great thought and intelligence.

HASH(0x90d95c24) out of 5 stars A Little Knife Music 8 Mar. 2009
By P. Nipper - Published on Amazon.com
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
Although I bought your book from Amazon.com a couple of weeks ago, I had foot surgery on Feb. 26th and couldn't bring myself to read about a doctor for 3 or 4 days. But once I got into "Knife Music," I had a hard time putting it down. I'm impressed by how accurate your descriptions of doctors, police, and the legal system seem to be. Also, the plot was downright intriguing.

I worked as a tech writer in Silicon Valley for years before retiring and have visited a lot of the places you mentioned in the vicinity.

I'll look forward to reading your next book!
