Critical Praise

"A mesmerizing blend of suspense and long-buried family secrets, Gottlieb’s second novel culminates in shocking revelations that rock a quiet upstate New York town. . . . Gottlieb skillfully ratchets up the suspense . . . until everything falls into place in a startling conclusion that will rattle even the genre’s most experienced readers. With his pitch-perfect dialogue and flawed yet empathetic characters, Gottlieb’s sophomore effort should win him widespread recognition"

—Publishers Weekly (starred review)

"NOW YOU SEE HIM is a true literary page-turner in which a string of startling revelations unfold within the constructs of lush and beautiful prose. It is at turns both heartbreaking and breathtaking." 

—Ann Patchett
