New York Times bestselling author Jeffrey Deaver says of “G-Men,” “If you liked E.L. Doctorow’s Ragtime or the writing of Caleb Carr (The Alienist), you’ll enjoy this [story].

Two different best of the year collections, including the prestigious Best American Mystery Stories, chose “G-Men” as one of the best stories of 2008. Nominated for the Sidewise Award for Best Alternate History.

Review by: Kevin A. Lyons on July 11, 2012 : star star star star star
This is a very good story that works on every level. The historic personalities stay in character in this "alternate history" story, the "historic" setting is accurate, and the conclusion is logical and believable.

It's easy to see why this story has been included in both mystery and science fiction anthologies.
