Warm, feisty. Like having Dolly in the room with you
VAL McDERMID

Run Rose Run grips your heart from the start and never lets go. Like a great Dolly Parton song, it is rich with heart, humour and humanity, full of a yearning for the light even in the darkest of nights. Unforgettably good stuff.
TONY PARSONS, bestselling author of the DC Max Wolfe series
-
Taut and exciting. Patterson's mastery plus Parton's insider knowledge of Nashville's dark underbelly equals one great read.
LISA GARDNER, bestselling author of the Detective D. D. Warren series
-
Run Rose Run is a suspenseful tale of a young musician desperate to escape her troubled past. A thrilling journey from two beloved voices, set against the backdrop of the country-music scene.
KATHLEEN GRISSOM, bestselling author of The Kitchen House and Glory Over Everything
-
Dolly Parton is the beating heart and yearning soul of this amazing novel. Enter James Patterson, who knows how to grab a reader by the throat, kick up the suspense, and move a novel along better than anybody else in the world. Run Rose Run is enthralling, terrifying, enlightening, and moving all at once.
LEE SMITH, bestselling author of The Last Girls and Dimestore

I absolutely loved it!
ROSS KING
-
A detailed, loving, professional portrait of a country music songwriter's process, whether alone and dreaming or down in the studio.
The Times
-
One of the most eagerly anticipated thrillers of 2022
Daily Express
-
Told with passion and sensitivity it is as much a tribute to Parton's warmth and humanity as it is to Patterson's skill as a thriller writer
Daily Mail
-
A diverting duet . . . [Dolly Parton] is able to supply an authenticity in the details of the American music business . . . The autobiographical aspects of the novel are foregrounded: AnnieLee is as diminutive as Run Rose Run's co-author, with a similarly sparky, self-deprecating character.
