Reviews
This is the first novel by Locke, a screenwriter; it is, Charles McGrath said in The Times , 'even better' than the slick book its author set out to write., A crackling thriller from Attica Locke. . . . Locke's writing is sharp and authentic; you can practically hear the Southern drawl emanating off the page . . . a writer we'll need to keep an eye on, Locke gives readers a well-paced suspense tale. . . . Let's hope Locke has more novels in her. Any author who can make readers actually like a low-rent lawyer has talent to spare., Locke shines . . . this is a rare occasion where the hype is deserved. . . . Locke seamlessly weaves history, suspense, and passion in this promising tale that will linger long after this season., Locke expertly etches a portrait of her anxiety-ridden protagonist, and she animates the complex plot with the assurance of a practiced screenwriter., This is the first novel by Locke, a screenwriter; it is, Charles McGrath said in The Times, even better than the slick book its author set out to write., Attica Locke's first novel, Black Water Rising, which Janet Maslin called 'subtle and compelling' in The New York Times, is an even better book than its author had in mind...The book cleverly replaces the kind of cold-war paranoia that used to animate thrillers with racial paranoia instead., Locke deftly moves between past and present action . . . [putting] her in the company of master thriller writers such as Dennis Lehane or Scott Turow. . . . Attica Locke [is] a writer wise beyond her years., First-novelist Locke presents a searing portrait of a man struggling to reconcile the bitterness of his life experiences with the idealism of his convictions. Like Dennis Lehane, she skillfully deploys the conventions of the thriller while also presenting biting social commentary, a sure sense of place, and soulful characters., This debut thriller charges out of the gate, boldly establishing Locke as a name to look out for in years to come., Locke flawlessly melds social commentary into an action-packed crime fiction, never allowing the briskly paced Black Water Rising to be bogged down by her scintillating look at racism.... Locke proves herself an author to watch with Black Water Rising, clearly one of the year's best debuts., “ Black Water Rising is a stylish, involving literary thriller with a strong emphasis on human politics and character. An auspicious debut from Attica Locke.�, A crackling good Houston-based mystery that captures the spirit of the boomtown era of the early 1980s . . . Intriguing . . . In the guise of a summer mystery, [Locke] subtly examines the history of race relations and the transition to an integrated America., An astonishingly accomplished debut . . . It's a completely absorbing, gorgeously written early 1980s story . . . Locke will earn well-deserved comparisons to Dennis Lehane for this work . . . This author is destined for literary stardom., “ Black Water Rising reads like a hard-boiled thriller, but the real trick resides in Locke’s ability to personalize an overlooked part of American history and show how far-reaching, how entrenched, it is in today’s social, political, and cultural fabric.�, Locke, a screenwriter with both film and TV credits (including a forthcoming HBO miniseries about the civil rights movement) steers a gritty drama to a satisfying end . . . Locke remains an author to watch., What a ride! Black Water Rising is a superlative debut; a wonderful treatise on the Texas 1980s; the best bad town novel in some time. Attica Locke is a stand-out in every imperative-young-writer way., Locke flawlessly melds social commentary into an action-packed crime fiction, never allowing the briskly paced Black Water Rising to be bogged down by her scintillating look at racism.. Locke proves herself an author to watch with Black Water Rising, clearly one of the year's best debuts., Black Water Rising [is] a strong and whip-smart debut from Attica Locke. Set in the author's native Houston, it's both a compelling mystery and a sharp, literate portrait of the social layers within that city's black community., Black Water Rising is an excellent book by any measure, but as a debut, it is nothing short of astonishing., Black Water Rising reads like a hard-boiled thriller, but the real trick resides in Locke's ability to personalize an overlooked part of American history and show how far-reaching, how entrenched, it is in today's social, political, and cultural fabric., Attica Locke is a vivid storyteller. . . .Without pretence, she provides an engaging story about one man's enduring struggle for justice and equality. It's a must for your summer reading list., [An] extraordinary debut. . . . This kind of racial authenticity and insight is rarely seen in the genre outside of Walter Mosley and Dennis Lehane. Plus, [Locke] really knows how to build suspense., “This is the first novel by Locke, a screenwriter; it is, Charles McGrath said in The Times , ‘even better’ than the slick book its author set out to write.�, Locke flawlessly melds social commentary into an action-packed crime fiction, never allowing the briskly paced Black Water Rising to be bogged down by her scintillating look at racism….

Locke seamlessly weaves history, suspense and passion in this promising tale that will linger long after this season., What a ride! Black Water Rising is a superlative debut; a wonderful treatise on the Texas 1980s; the best bad town novel in some time. Attica Locke is a stand-out in every imperative-young-writer way, “What a ride!

Attica Locke is a stand-out in every imperative-young-writer way.�, Black Water Rising is a stylish, involving literary thriller with a strong emphasis on human politics and character. An auspicious debut from Attica Locke., Publishers like to pepper their hypewithwords like 'superlative,' 'auspicious,' 'universal,' and 'dazzling' (all used about this book), claims that are usually ignored. This time, though, they're absolutely right. If you only read one suspense novel this summer, make it Black Water Rising., [A] deeply nuanced story . . . As Scott Turow has done, Ms. Locke uses small, incremental deceptions to draw her main character into big and dangerous mistakes . . . Subtle and compelling.
