Praise
“A violent odyssey…that should thrill both old and new readers of this hard-boiled master.” –Wall Street Journal
“The author maintains the dead-eyed tone of Stark while plotting as generously and inventively as Westlake. Trust Stark, or Westlake, to make even the most ordinary heist nail-biting.” – Kirkus Reviews
