“Tom Stechschulte portrays Reles with a swagger in his voice that matches his cockiness and gangster roots. Peter Jay Fernandez takes on the other characters with interesting accents and phrasing.”
“The well-depicted setting, the fast (if not breakneck) pace, evocative atmosphere, and believable dialogue hold the reader’s attention throughout.”
“As Simon continues to document Austin’s dark years, he indicts misery’s profiteers—dealers, developers, and politicians—with an infectious indignation.”
“Gritty, jumpy, and absorbing.”
" An attempt to insert political ideas, but otherwise, an average suspense thriller. "
" Started listening. Didn't finish. It felt VERY dark to me. "
