“Now You Owe Me is a crisply written, fast-paced thriller with meaning layered so deftly into the entertainment, you get a double bonus of social commentary and spine-chilling twists. In the best tradition of smart writing marrying depth with depravity, Aliah Wright brings her characters to life so skillfully, you'll close the book eager to open her next.” —Jessica Jiji, author of Sweet Dates in Basra
