Chris Pavone’s debut spy thriller The Expats has been compared to the early works of Ken Follett, Frederick Forsyth, Robert Ludlum, and John le Carre.
Some of the biggest names in thrillers are rallying behind Pavone’s remarkable first novel. Patricia Cornwell thinks you won’t soon forget the “powerful female protagonist.” John Grisham says The Expats is “smart, clever suspense, skillfully plotted.” John Connolly believes it’s “one of the most accomplished debuts of recent years.”
The Expats is getting starred early reviews across the board, and we’re so excited to share it with you before it hits the shelves on March 6, 2012. Be among the very first readers to discover a powerful new voice in thriller/suspense!

RIFers! Who is your very favorite thriller/suspense author, and why? We want to hear from you – leave a comment!
Would love to read this, it sounds really interesting!
This looks like an engaging read. My favorite thriller author is Joseph Finder.
Must be a real suspenseful exciting thriller if all these authors rated it so high. Another author to add to my list of authors to read and enjoy.
This is my favorite genre so selecting a “favorite” is difficult. Jeffrey Deaver is high on my list of favorites. I saw the movie The Bone Collector and HAD to read the book. I’ve been hooked on his books ever since. Just reading the comparison to Robert Ludlum (another long-time favorite) makes this a “must read” for me.
Sounds pretty intriguing!
I would love to read this book!
Looks like a great book would love to read it and pass it on
David Baldacci is one of my favorite
suspense/thriller authors. His background
in law and the research he does, makes
his writing seem very realistic!
Many thanks, Cindi
First time on this site, glad i joined. My oldest daughter of four loves thriller books. This one looks good.
Ooooh, a spy story. Gotta love those. Currently reading a murder mystery by P.C. Doherty. “The Templar Magician”
What a gift! Can’t wait to read it! One of my favorite thriller authors is Thomas Perry with the Jane Whitefield series.
I do enjoy Patricia Cornwell and would love to read someone she enjoys as well!!!
I think I would enjoy this book. It seems like a book I would have a hard time putting down.
Exciting
My favorite author is Harlan Coban. His books make me laugh and shiver all the way to the (very) surprising ending.
Am certainly looking forward to reading THE EXPATS.My favorite reading=any thriller that keeps me involved & not wanting to put the book down. Favorite author=Brad Thor. Another favorite is James Rollins. Give me more.
Sounds like a great book! If I win it, I would give it away to someone else to read when I was finished. As a musician, I believe knowledge and entertainment should be shared by all.
Just received the book and I can’t wait to start reading it.
Just received the book yesterday. a few pages in and it already has my utmost attention! I look forward to my reading time later! Thank you soooo much!
