"THE SOUL HUNTERS took me entirely out of my own life and then very artfully led me back into it. This writer's way with time and with people in time, through the window of a single day and night, is as involving as it is by turns moving and funny, too. The compression of incidents and emotion, and the psychology of this family, these sons and their lost father, had me from the start. One LIVES in this book; one's sense of felt life is enhanced without quite seeing how it is brought off. A magic show, the thing first rate fiction always provides." -- Richard Bausch
