Bruce B. (Bruce) - , reviewed Compelling Read on 2/12/2009 + 9 more book reviews

Helpful Score: 2

The plot is improbable, the characters are unbelievably extraordinary, the woman unbelievably sexy and seductive, and yet despite these flaws it's a great entertainment, the kind of book that grabs you by the collar and won't let go. Decided to read a few pages or a chapter before going to sleep the other night, and ended up reading half the book. Finished it the next day. Reminds me a bit of some of Richard Stark's Parker novels, but much slicker and with more worthy content because of its child abuse theme.
