A Chicago Tribune Books Section featured crime-fiction release.

"Wiley's first novel is loaded with action, starting with a murder in the opening scene. The body count is impressive, yet there's more to Striptease than wall-to-wall plot."

— Chicago Sun-Times

“One heck of a mystery! Wiley's first installment in the Private Eye Joe Kozmarski series is a definite winner and ushers in a potent new talent. A terrific debut.”

— barnesandnoble.com, Feature Mystery

“This delightful debut is a hoot from beginning to end. Wiley is another writer to watch.”

— Toronto Globe and Mail

The Last Striptease is a “fast-paced,” “entertaining read.” Private detective Joe Kozmarski is a “wonderfully flawed everyman” for whom “Readers will applaud.”

— Publishers Weekly

"If Michael Wiley's goal was to write a murder mystery that would keep readers up past their bed time, he has succeeded. Wiley has turned out a first novel that has an absorbing plot and believable characters. The writing in The Last Striptease is strong and seamless."

— Florida Times Union
