Critics Review
“Illuminates both the darkest excesses of criminality and, in counterpoint, the slack-jawed solipsism of the law-abiding.“—Time Out Chicago“Vachss’s prose is as taut and streetwise as ever, drawing his readers again into an evil underworld that is at once impossible to look away from and horrible to behold.“—Associated Press“Burke is the hardest, most twisted man in crime and thriller fiction.“—Contra Costa Times “Transcends the crime novel even further… . Like a lecture from the smartest raconteur you never want to meet.”—The Seattle Times
