The Pixel Eye
By Paul Levinson 

     In the times after 9/11, America has been inundated by the fear of terrorism and questions of where the next terrorist attack could come from. In The Pixel Eye, Mr. Levinson creates a strange and unusual source for terrorism: squirrels and hamsters of New York City. Forensic Detective Phil D'Amato is brought back to investigate the disappearance of New York City squirrels. What he finds is a scary threat to New York City and the rest of America.

     Despite the strange and obtuse theories that are invented in The Pixel Eye, Mr. Levinson continues to do a remarkable job in his writing skills and clearly shows that he has a natural talent for writing. Mr. Levinson has done a fantastic job in continuing to develop Phil D'Amato's character which makes him a main character that is hard to forget. Mr. Levinson's descriptions of the unique hustle and bustle of New York City is right up there with Jeffery Deaver's. This reader encourages Mr. Levinson to continue writing about Phil and the unique cases that he seems to get caught up in. The Pixel Eye is a great read for those who want to get away from the scary reality and be given something to think and talk about with others.
