"With its short, brisk chapters, the novel reads as if it were a newspaper column, appropriate for the investigative nature of the book...readers who enjoy colorful characters might appreciate this fiction debut by a sports and entertainment journalist who writes what he knows." –Library Journal
"Where Have You Gone Without Me? is a wildly entertaining romp across the gritty sidewalks of New York with a streetwise newspaperman. Bonventre is a compelling storyteller. Once I started reading, I couldn't stop. It's one hell of a yarn!" —Howard Blum, New York Times bestselling author of The Last Goodnight and Dark Invasion
"Let’s see: There’s a religious miracle (maybe) and a headline-grabbing murder (definitely), a psycho gangster with a bizarre dream and a long-lost love who suddenly makes the scene. And that’s not all. Where Have You Gone Without Me? is a Must Read—so what’re you waiting for?" —Maxine Paetro, co-author with James Patterson of No. 1 New York Times Best Sellers
“I have sat in bars with Pete Bonventre just to hear him tell stories. Where Have You Gone Without Me? reads like he talks, with the smooth, knowing style of a singer who understands that the power of the song is in the words.” —Tony Kornheiser, co-host of ESPN’s Pardon the Interruption
“A guy walks into a bar and says to the bartender: ‘Gimme something tasty  with a bit of a bite; something salty but sweet that goes down easy but makes my head spin.’ The bartender snaps his fingers and hands him a copy of Peter Bonventre’s novel, Where Have You Gone Without Me?—a sweeping tale of murder, revenge, and romance that will leave you breathless and maybe a little tipsy.” —Betsy Carter, Best Selling Author of Lost Souls at the Neptune Inn and We Were Strangers Once
"The brazen theft of a statue from a New York church, just hours after it was believed to be crying, starts city columnist Eddie Sabella in pursuit of the story of his career. A non-stop, riveting tale about murder, mobsters and second chances." —Nick Pileggi, Best-Selling Author of Wiseguy and Casino and Oscar-nominated screenwriter of Goodfellas
“Peter Bonventre has delivered a rare treat--a fuel-injected story packed with heart and heat, dialogue as rich as an overheard street corner conversation and a plot that never lets up, handling the curves love throws our way as easily as it maneuvers the hard knocks that come when you look to a gun for answers. The characters are Richard Price real, caught behind the eight ball of life and doing their all to come out the other end of the day in one piece. Toss in a missing statue of a beloved saint and you have the perfect recipe for a novel that will only leave in its wake the warmest of memories. Where Have You Gone Without Me is a hit--in every sense of the word.” —Lorenzo Carcaterra, Best-Selling Author of Sleepers and Street Boys
“Peter Bonventre has mixed up a potent cocktail that packs a wallop. A splash of religious miracle, a stolen saint, mixed with vengeful Mafiosi and violent murder, and finished off with a sexually charged romance, it’s shaken up by a cast of characters etched with a reporter’s precision and the flair of a born story-teller. This one will make your head spin.” —Robert Goolrick, New York Times Best-Selling Author of A Reliable Wife
"Unless you don’t like vicious gangsters, brave newspaper columnists, steamy romance and minor miracles in a fast-moving tale of the city, stay away from the novel that newsie Bonventre was born to write. I loved it." —Robert Lipsyte, Award-winning Novelist and Emmy-winning PBS Host
“In Where Have You Gone Without Me?, Bonventre engrossingly and hysterically documents a time when mobsters, reporters and cops mingled in Manhattan bars. If you have even a trace of love for the greatest town on Earth, get this dazzling novel by a great journalist—it’s a printed version of the Museum of the City of New York.” —Peter Mehlman, Author and Seinfeld Writer and Executive Producer
“Read it and weep. Peter Bonventre's novel is a crackerjack yarn yanked from the tabloids, set in the alleys and gin joints of Manhattan, featuring mafiosi, priests, dames and hit men--and an ink-stained protagonist who reminds me of the author, a player in New York’s journalistic glory days. Where Have You Gone Without Me? is the era-defining novel Bonventre delivers with grit and heart.” —Chris Whipple, New York Times bestselling author of The Gatekeepers and The Spymasters
“Snappy dialogue, zany characters, and a riveting plot keep the pages turning at warp speed. This Runyonesque romp is not to be missed!”  —Daco S. Auffenorde, Award-winning author of Cover Your Tracks
