He's a skilled writer and I'd say the balance in the writing is about right.col2910https://www.blogger.com/profile/06422138069939709043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-50577579022657793232014-08-02T03:49:39.157-07:002014-08-02T03:49:39.157-07:00Col, this sounds like another racy thriller.

It's interesting that most of what you spotlight has such striking cover art (like this one). "Fat Gary" is a great book and character name. Reminds me of the movie "Snatch" with "Bullet Tooth Tony" and "Boris the Blade".gakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08527510140415920673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-1422509873243559482014-08-01T05:33:32.829-07:002014-08-01T05:33:32.829-07:00Margot thanks.

I know exactly the sort of place it must be; been to a few myself. And the story sounds like a nice bit of <i>noir</i>, too. Glad you enjoyed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
