  • "Hugh Rincon - a Langley-based CIA agent - and his wife, Sara Lange (executive officer aboard the U.S. Coastguard cutter Sojourner Truth) fight against ruthless and well-funded terrorists. The opening is as hot as a firecracker; Stabenow opens with a bang in Pattaya Beach, Thailand: 'Much later when the glass had stopped flying and the screams of pain had died to moans and whimpers and the hoarse rattles of death, when the bodies had been taken to the morgue and the injured taken to the hospitals, when the television cameras had gone and workers had begun to clear the rubble and business along Central Street began to return to a shaken sort of normal, very few people remembered the two men who had been standing on the corner of Soi Cowboy when the bomb went off. They were definitely Asian, or so said a vigorous, middle-aged woman who owned a pornographic comic book store near by.' Hugh soon discovers a terrorist plot to drop a dirty bomb in an Alaskan city. The threat isn't taken seriously by his agency, and Hugh realizes he will be forced to take matters into his own hands. Blindfold Game's adventure globe-hops from Thailand to Korea, from Russia to Hong Kong, building in crescendo to an enthralling naval battle off the Alaskan coastline."@en
  • "Starred Review. Known for two successful Alaskan mystery series (featuring Kate Shugak and Liam Campbell respectively), Edgar-winner Stabenow (Fire and Ice) has crafted a taut, credible thriller that should win her a much larger audience. Opposing resourceful, ruthless and well-funded terrorists ready to bring unimaginable devastation to American shores are a husband-and-wife team: Hugh Rincon, a Langley-based CIA honcho, and Sara Lange, the executive officer aboard the U.S. Coast Guard cutter Sojourner Truth, which patrols the Maritime Boundary Line in the northern Pacific Ocean. Globe-hopping action moves from Thailand to Hong Kong, Korea and Russia, culminating in a naval showdown off the Alaskan coast. The author's depictions of the Alaskan environment, its seas, storms and cold, have never been more vivid, while the sea and air operations she recounts are both heroic and enthralling. Stabenow has established herself as a fine mystery writer, but she may have found her true metier with this excellent thriller."
