Liked It Rated 4 stars “First Leonard I've read. Hard to get into, especially after picking it up immediately after finishing Dennis Lehane's "Gone, Baby, Gone," as their writing styles are so different. Once I got used to Leonard's narrative style, the book started picking up. Kind of disappointed with the ending, though.” see full review » see other reviews »

  “A true classic of the American crime genre. Quite a few of Leonard's books have become screenplays.”

  “As always - Elmore Leonard writes consistently good, short, engaging novels.
  
  I think he is the best writer you will ever consistently find on the supermarket best seller list.”

  “The story is a little cliched but the characters make it great and Leonard still makes it interesting with his typical black comedy/violent surprises.”
