Review
Abramo has the hard-boiled private eye formula down pat--solidly written and captures the mood of the genre. -- Booklist, October 2001
Abramo keeps the twists coming fast enough that readers have no choice but to keep turning pages. -- San Francisco Chronicle, October 14, 2001
Abramo's novel brings back the spirit of Chandler, Hammett and Spillane with originality, while paying tribute to its genre predecessors. -- The State, October 14, 2001
Fast-paced...ought to please pulp diehards. -- Kirkus Reviews
The novel sparkles throughout with the wit of an intelligent author who obviously knows the ins and outs of his genre. -- The Gamecock, December 2001
