Praise for Glycerine: "Ryan writes in a no-nonsense prose that reads like a police procedural destined for the screen."
	- Mari Sasano, Alberta Views
Praise for Foxed: Ryan's prose is clear without being flashy, his antagonist is suitably villainous without descending into melodrama, the police themselves show a laudable diligence and the supporting characters are allowed their own flashes of competence and plunk."
	- Publishers Weekly
“Ryan has penned a haunting, psychological drama of the first order.”
	- Edmonton Journal
“Watching Lane and Harper unpeel the layers of this particular onion is an amazing experience.”
	- The Star Phoenix
"Ryan's books are proof that mysteries can be as satisfying in a literary sense as traditional novels."
	- Drewey Wayne Gunn, professor emeritus of Texas A&M University-Kingsville.
