Kirkus Reviews has called her "an accomplished thriller and historical adventure writer." Publishers Weekly called her novel, ISLAND ON FIRE, "a memorable romantic thriller", her novel RACE TO TIBET, “a thrilling yarn,” and her TRANSFER DAY, “a page-turner with emotional resonance.” Her latest novel, THE LOST DIARY OF ALEXANDER HAMILTON, was called "an engaging coming-of-age story of heartbreak, bravery, honor, and triumph" by Kirkus Reviews.
