      One of Francis’s best. Great story and lots of interesting characters. Highly recommended!
    • 5/5
      Kept me reading..not wanting to put it down. Great descriptions of characters. Loved the plot. The author, as with all his books, gets boring with with this fixation on describing the pain her protagonist goes through at some point. What normal person would not take himself to a hospital after a vicious beating? But just skip over it and pick up the plot later in the narrative. You won’t miss a thing.
