"Wow, I didn’t realize this was the first novel by the Author. I really enjoyed this fast paced thriller. The premise was very original, and unfortunately realistic…I’m looking forward to the author’s next novel."

"This is an effective thriller in the mold of best-sellers like Thomas Harris’s Black Sunday. Pederson understands the genre, and paces the action well to reach a complete and satisfying ending. Hand on heart, I enjoyed reading it, and I think many other thriller fans would enjoy it just as much as me."

"Can one of the greatest tragedies ever be crafted into a work of fiction that will keep you on the edge of your seat? If it’s ‘Nine Minutes Eleven Seconds’ by L.V. Pederson, then yes, it can and does."
