"There's a nice noir feeling to the opening pages of A TIME GONE BY . . . Heffernan's novels are not so much about the murder but the effect the murder has on the people involved. That's not just good mystery writing. That's good writing, period." --DENVER POST
"Heffernan's tale is beguiling . . . His success in the reworking of a classic American art form is also obvious. Cain and Hammett would have approved." --ROCKY MOUNTAIN NEWS
"An aging police detective's regrets are examined in raw, moving detail in this superior crime drama . . . Edgar-winning Heffernan once again shows himself a craftsman of the hardboiled style, as well as a seamless handler of shifting viewpoints and emotions." --PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
