Quotes

“Listeners will find echoes of Raymond Chandler in this audiobook.… Patrick Lawlor is perfect for the genre, narrating with clear diction and a tone that fits the story. At less than an hour, the plot speeds along, with Lawlor capturing the characters every step of the way. Add a dose of cynicism, a touch of humor, and gun-toting villains to the veteran narrator's accomplished work, and this is an enjoyable listen.” —AudioFile Magazine
