Clay Reynolds writes very involved, highly charged stories about people living on the edge of one disaster or another whether they know it or not. They've either been targeted by or have targeted for themselves another person who unexpectedly gets roped into tense and dangerous situations. It's a good idea when reading Clay Reynolds to pay attention because you never know what stray tidbit of information may become the key to what happens next. In my opinion, Clay Reynolds surpasses "thrillers" and goes straight into nails-bitten-to-the-quick suspense and excitement. I highly recommend Players to anyone who enjoys that kind of involved, hair-raising story.

The more information Roz collects about Olive Martin the less inclined she is to believe that Olive did in fact commit the crimes of which she has been convicted. It is then up to Roz to follow her leads through to the conclusion of who did butcher those two people in the Martin's kitchen.
I think some of the highest praise an author can receive is to have his/her readers say they want to read more about the characters introduced in one of the author's books. That is exactly how I felt after reading The Sculptress. Not only was this book well written and a tightly constructed mystery, but the characters were so intriguing and interesting that I hated to see them go when I'd finished the book.
The Sculptress was the Edgar Award winner in 1994, an honor well deserved. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys mysteries where the crime itself remains the focus of the story, but the character involved give it just the right touch of atmosphere and add just the right amount of texture to the story.
