“Combines a fresh voice, terrific characters, and high-octane suspense. Finder catapults himself into the front ranks of contemporary thriller writers.” Harlan Coben, #1 New York Times bestselling author
“Masterfully told and thoroughly engrossing.” People
“People are not who or what they seem…The story is all about deception, and Finder has done his homework…Paranoia is a lot of flash and dazzle, but Finder also has a good ear for dialogue…It is a lot of fun. And there’s nothing wrong with that.” Denver Post
“Edge of your seat action…You’ll think twice about who’s watching you at work!” Washington Post
“The first jet-propelled thriller of 2004…Go along for the ride…Twisting, stealthily plotted.” New York Times
“Provides more chills than any ghoul with a chain saw.” Entertainment Weekly
“This year’s first contender for Page Turner of the Year…It’s as if [Finder] has taken Sun Tzu’s Art of War as a blueprint to concoct a terrific tale…It’s riveting stuff…The corporate thriller just got an upgrade.” USA Today

Paranoia is an incredibly clever novel. I love Joseph Finder’s writing, and this time, he surpasses himself with some of the best dialogue and characterizations I’ve read in a long time. If there’s such a thing as an instant classic, this is it.” Nelson DeMille, #1 New York Times bestselling author
“The real thing—a sleek, hip and fast-paced thriller that gets its hooks in you from the very first page. It’s a terrific combination of nail-biting suspense, great characters with depth and real heart, and a fresh, original voice.” Lisa Scottoline, New York Times bestselling author
“One of those all-too-rare but absolutely unforgettable books that rewrites the rules for contemporary thrillers.

Paranoia is a knock-out—a fresh, original and compelling novel that is impossible to put down.” Daniel Silva, #1 New York Times bestselling author
“Don’t start this book at 8:00 p.m. or you’ll be up all night. Finder’s latest is a fun read with a hip narrator, an engaging story set in a world rarely seen in thrillers, and great suspense.” Library Journal (starred review)
Scott Brick narrates flawlessly, using one voice that manages not only to portray Adam's satiric sense of humor but also to capture each of the many other characters' personalities. By using a variety of tempos and modulating his voice, Brick maintains tension and builds nonstop suspense. This great performance is a perfect fit for the writing. Audio File
This kind of stuff is Brick's Forte. He handles suspense with just the right touch. Philadelphia Inquirer
Sharp, wicked, funny, exciting. Andrew Klavan, author of True Crimes
Paranoia is a knock-out--a fresh, original and compelling novel that is impossible to put down. Daniel Silva
