—Steve Weddle, author of Country Hardball
“The Names of Dead Girls is a taut, slick thriller that absolutely races out of the gate. Eric Rickstad has a special talent for writing scenes that are almost unbearably tense. Warning: Once you start this one, you won’t be able to stop.”
—Brad Parks, author of Say Nothing
