Like the story lines and the characters
I enjoy this series because I like both the story lines and the characters. Equally important, I also like what I read about the work this author has done and continues to do in his life outside of writing books. Thank you, Mr. Canaff...on behalf of all those who are victimized by predators as well as those of us who enjoy a great read.

Deals with many important issues
This is the second book in the Alec Greco series and it did not fail. Twists and turns enlivened the plot and kept me interested to the very end. Deals with many important issues...sexual abuse, child abuse, gender issues.

Great book!
Great book! This book drew me in from page one and I could not stop reading. Roger's experience and knowledge of the courtroom and it's proceedings really shines through in the book. His main character, Alex Greco, is very relatable and his own experiences being mingled in with the case were a nice refresher when certain areas got intense. Overall I was very intrigued and entertained by this book. Can't wait to read book two!

As you are taken deeper down the rabbit hole of Alex's past, you are also left on the edge of your seat as a new case takes shape that leaves you guessing right til the very end.

Couldn’t put it down!
Couldn't put it down! Among the Dead by Roger Canaff is an intriguing novel that I couldn't put down! Alex Greco, the Assistant District Attorney, has more than his share of demons, but his character drew me in. The book description says "For the prime suspect, a choice. For ADA Alex Greco, a calling." Roger's first calling was serving as a prosecutor for special victims. I believe he's found his second calling as a writer. I can't wait to find follow this series and see what Alex will do next!

Don't miss this book!
Don't miss this book! It's hard to believe that I was lucky enough to find another outstanding book this year for such a bargain price. After I read "My Name Is River Blue," I didn't think I would find so much book for the money again, but "Copperhead Road" is that book. I like books with many rich characters, and subplots woven masterfully throughout and tightly connected to the main story. If you decide to buy this book, set aside some uninterrupted time because you won't put it down for long.

I was drawn in by the very first page and finished within the week.
First in what I hope will be a long series. I read this book at the insistence of a friend, and am glad I did. I was drawn in by the very first page and finished within the week. From A.D.A. Alex Greco to Joseliz, the community college student, this cast of characters are easy to picture in your mind's eye as the story unfolds. Readers of Harlan Coben and of good crime mysteries in general will enjoy this story.

Captures the potential terror faced by teenagers
Not since Stephen King’s “It,” can I remember a book that so well captured the potential terror faced by teenagers about to enter the “real world.” But “It” involved an other-worldly monster drawn from King’s rich imagination. There are monsters, too, in “Copperhead Road,” but these monsters all have human faces. They interact freely with their neighbors in the community and conceal their depraved acts behind a facade of normalcy and friendliness. As his book makes crystal clear, Roger Canaff is all too familiar with this kind of all-consuming, penetrative, evil. But to his credit, his novel demonstrates that love is stronger than hate, and that friendship sometimes, not always, creates bonds stronger than those forged by trauma. This is by no means inevitable, but it is always possible. Roger Canaff teaches that this--the elevation of love over hate--must be the goal of all of us who have been affected, directly or indirectly, repeatedly or just once, by the insidious horror of childhood sexual abuse. It is far easier said than done. But it is well worth the effort.
