Customer Reviews

a real find - really good book by new author

A first book by a new author, this is an excellent detective story, written by someone who obviously knows whereof he speaks. I found it started a little slowly, but the more I read, the better it got and the more engrossed I became. Then it just took off and I couldn't put it down. The characters are excellently idiosyncratic, the author nails the dialog and interactions between his people, the plot is gripping and well-paced, the narrative involving, and the resolution ultimately very satisfying. Do yourself a favor, read this and pass it on-publishers need to be encouraged to publish more books like this.

One of those rare GREAT finds in books

I found this book to have all the elements needed to make reading a pleasant experience. The characters take on a life all their own. It is very apparent that Charles Porter has worked in the detective field for many years, as the plot is beleivable and is interesting until the very end. This is a book that rates right up there with some of the best I've ever read and I recomend it to anyone that takes pleasure in reading. One word of caution, make sure you don't have any up and coming plans, the book is difficult to put down
