Editorial Reviews
Entertainment Weekly
Edgerton, evoking Flannery O'Connor, composes chatty, tone-perfect tales of small-town life that illuminate the knife edge between satire and nostalgia. Here, evil comes to sleepy Listre, N.C., circa 1950, in the form of a stranger with a pencil-thin mustache and a trunkful of dirty movies. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

The New York Times Book Review, Mark Childress
Edgerton has produced seven novels set mostly in and around the town of Listre, the fictional stand-in for his hometown of Betheseda, N.C. Each of these books is, in its own way, thoroughly appealing, and Where Trouble Sleeps is no exception. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.
