―Sierra Crane Murdoch, author of the Pulitzer Prize–finalist Yellow Bird
"The Silver State does this wondrous and exceptional thing: it takes you into custody and will not let you go until its final and devastating revelations—and not even then. A breathtaking novel by a first-rate writer."
―Tim Johnston, bestselling author of Descent, The Current, and Distant Sons
"The Silver State is as riveting as a thriller, yet it is also the story of a society’s ethical erosion. Asking us to think hard about what passes for “justice for all” in the 21st century, it speaks powerfully and directly to our political moment."
―Leni Zumas, author of Red Clocks
"Written in a terrifically stylish hardboiled Great Basin lyric, the novel is an elegy for the guilty and innocent alike, particularly those destroyed by the carceral state. A scathing, mournful and long-overdue autopsy of justice in the American imagination."
―Claire Vaye Watkins, author of I Love You But I’ve Chosen Darkness
