Review Quotes
"At the heart of a book about a dedicated FBI agent father on a quest to find his missing daughter while working alongside the least expected partner to bring down a notorious scam artist is a story with provocative characters and their home-hitting struggles that will keep you turning pages and racing toward the Brownstone on E. 83rd." - Yasmine Angoe, Anthony nominated author of the critically acclaimed Her Name is Knight of the Nena Knight series.
"The Brownstone on E. 83rd is a book that kept me up at night-and then I couldn't wait to get back to it. Jenny Dandy's characters sizzle on the page and will stay with you long after you finish reading." - Benjamin Whitmer, critically acclaimed author of Pike, Cry Father, Evasion, and Les Dynamiteurs
"Ronnie Charles is a skilled thief whose attempt to escape the trappings of her past lands her in a precarious present; Frank Jankowski, an FBI agent who believes the failures of his past have thrown his only daughter into present-day crisis. Both the protagonists of The Brownstone on E. 83rd are backed up against fortress walls of their own creation; both, in the skillful, tender hands of Jenny Dandy, find ways through difficulty, around and over the worst versions of themselves, and, most importantly, towards greater understanding. Dandy accomplishes all this with seamless, spare prose, and builds The Brownstone on East 83rd with a level of narrative scaffolding that will satisfy any reader's itch for dramatic satisfaction. The Brownstone on East 83rd marks the debut of an auspicious new voice in American literature." - Jacinda Townsend, critically acclaimed author of Saint Monkey and Mother Country
