Has the ambitious sweep and narrative power of a nineteenth-century novel.” - Tom Perrotta, author of Little Children on Human Capital “A gripping, troubling, and incisive portrait of the way we live now. Beneath the surface of his subtle and absorbing narrative lurk paranoia and the refusal to face up to disquieting truths.” - Nick Rennison, The Sunday Times (London) “With his dry ironies and his skill in probing beneath the comfortable veneer of his characters' lives, Amidon tells us more than many writers with greater pretensions. “A gripping account of scandal and fear in outer suburbia.” - Financial Times Good fences may make good neighbors, but bad neighbors make better novels.” - Molly Young, The New York Observer “Reading Security is a bit like waking up at four in the morning and surveying familiar bedroom objects in-literally-a new light. “Amidon once again displays his unerring facility for sniffing out the shaky foundations of our lives.” - Stewart O'Nan, The Washington Post Peyton Place in the age of terror and twitter.” - Joseph Salvatore, The New York Times Book Review
