“David Urban is a dark poet. With seductive grace and powerful prose, A Line Intersected transforms the postcard vistas of San Diego into a barren landscape of murder and betrayal. I suggest you start reading Intersected early in the day, because  you won’t be able to sleep until you’ve finished this roller coaster of a novel.”  – Tim Maleeny, bestselling author of Stealing the Dragon and JUMP

“David Grant Urban writes with grace and his prose offers the precision that readers long for when they read crime and investigation novels. The protagonist is a deeply wounded man and his quest for revenge comes across just so naturally to readers.” -Romuald Dzemo, Readers’ Favorite (5-Star Review)
