In fluent, agile prose Jonathan Lee takes onone of the more famous assassination plots in recent history with striking evenhandedness and depth. His novel offers a funny, gripping, and ultimately tragic view into the life of a young IRA man and the dear price he, and his victims, pay during the dark years of the Troubles.
Ayana Mathis, author of" The Twelve Tribes of Hattie"
"High Dive"is a novel so smart and compassionate and beautifully written that it asks for total immersion. A reader will hold her breath for long, perfectly-paced stretches, and she will surface, dizzied, at the end.

Hauntingly atmospheric . . . Lee is quite brilliant at excavating the disappointments of characters constantly chasing lost opportunities . . .

In the mundane, Jonathan Lee finds the deep end, where all are diving for dear life.
