Reviews for Playing in Traffic
BookList
“Giles, who knows how to construct a tightly wound plot, continues to turn the tension up in this one. Her pacing is impeccable, and the story races along. The characterizations (of the kids, though not always the adults) are sharp and strong, and although the language is sometimes rough, it always sounds real.”
Kirkus
“. . .this in-depth exploration of adolescent psychology high lights the real dangers often involved in alternative lifestyles. Giles simply allows her story to unfold without trying to shock and, in doing so, makes her final shock all the more effective.”
The Bulletin
“...the dark energy that’s been carefully built up,. . . the edgy setup and unfolding intrigue will draw fans of psychological chillers.”
PW
“. . .suspenseful, psychological gripping novel . . Giles’s narrative pace never slackens, and readers will find themselves racing to the finish.”
