Testimonials

“Clay Small does a masterful job in his debut as a novelist. The uncanny twists and turns kept me up well past my bedtime as I simply could not put it down. You won’t be able to either!”

“Heels over Head is an adventure, a whodunit, and a road-trip story all in one. It hooked me with its colorful characters whose accents and turns of speech almost audibly jump off the page. And Clay Small brings his own decades of business expertise to bear, not just with insights into how executives think, behave, and sometimes misbehave, but also by confronting his characters with modern issues like gender and marriage equality. As we follow his villains, heroes, and everyone in between, Small cleverly gives us a window into the biases that still exist in the business world. That added dimension will leave you thinking, long after you’ve untangled the tightly woven storylines that make this book so fun to read.”

“A fast-paced, raucous ride through the worlds of hoity-toity academia and high-stakes finance with conflicting undercurrents of ruinous revenge, mistaken distrust and enduring love controlling the flow – a fast-paced read that was hard to put down.”

“Clay Small has populated his novel with a cast of characters who are both imaginative and credible. And he has used his intimate firsthand knowledge of the 21st century American university and global corporation to weave these characters through a thoroughly enjoyable and ultimately satisfying tale of intrigue and suspense. Heels over Head was for me the proverbial page-turner, and I sincerely hope I have not read the last of Professor Henry Lindon.”

“Clay G. Small’s Heels over Head furiously kicks in from page one and keeps on kicking right through the enthralling story lines of how misinterpretations and grudges can turn into deadly revenge. I found myself in an all-out sprint of reading to get to the finish!”

“A well spun contemporary yarn thick with threads of characters and situations not always being what they appear… to which anyone can relate and everyone can thoroughly enjoy. Prepare for a fun and captivating ride.”

“Clay has written a captivating and intelligent book that uniquely captures the richness of the connectivity among business, academia and society in the wonderful city of Dallas, Texas. If you ever lived in Dallas, you will immediately connect to the characters and the locations described in the book. Everyone else will be simply delighted by the twists and turns of revenge stretching from Wichita to Dallas to Buenos Aires.”

“This is not a testimonial. It´s a standing ovation to Clay and his book, a truly vivid and entertaining piece of literature from start to finish, back and forth. Clay clearly masters many aspects of writing and his description of my hometown of Buenos Aires and, more importantly, of its ambience and the way we “porteños” behave is simply perfect. It is one of the best books I have read in years.”
