Kirkus Review:
Grift, greed, corruption, and jazz swirl together in this reimagining of New York City’s Roaring ’20s. A well-written historical thriller filled with smoky backrooms, crime, sex, and iconic music. Our recommendation 'Get It'.

Review:
John Nuckel builds on Roosevelt's real world Rough Riders and answers the question - what if they were here today? The flash-forwards and backs are impeccably placed as you jump from a gritty New York in the days of Tammany Hall to the modern day opulence of a Martha’s Vineyard compound. Characters are vivid, interesting and strong. Dialog and setting instantly adapt to time and place.

The premise is enchanting and episodic – I would hope there are more.

John Nuckel imagined a great story. He tells it well.

Review:
Another great read from John Nuckel.Five stars compared to Dickens or Hugo? Of course not! But a very strong five stars when put into the category of Nelson DeMille, Lee Child, David Baldacci and James Rollins. It's writing filled with testosterone, breathtaking surprises and wonderful characters. I see this trilogy as a series of motion pictures a la Bourne. While reading BLIND TRUST and the two novels that preceded it, I kept picturing someone like Ed Burns in the lead role. Gritty New York settings, tough, no nonsense characters...Ed Burns, contact Mr. Nuckel, before Clooney or Affleck discover it. This Nuckel creates a fist that knocks the air out of the reader. Bravo!

Kirkus Review:
A deranged killer comes to New York seeking vengeance in Nuckel’s (The Vig, 2011, etc.) latest thriller. A slow-burning story with a fiery climax that more than lives up to expectations.

Kirkus Review:
In this debut thriller, a New York options trader finds himself in even a greater mess than the financial market. A taut thriller that cruises through the New York financial market, with all its blind curves and bumpy roadways, like a sports car. Our recommendation 'Get It'.

Review:
I thoroughly enjoyed The Garden, by John Nuckel. Known for his thrillers, this book is a departure from that genre, entering into the metaphysical/spiritual. The Garden deals with souls, eternal love, letting go in order to move on, with a glimpse of what may come. It is a short story that is not short on substance. Read it and see.

Review:
I love a short story that really blows your heart away. This is one of those. Highly recommend this nostalgic tale.
