Great, quick read
A fast-paced, engaging, and fun read that successfully marries comedy to tragedy.
As an aside — I appreciated how the author managed to evoke an old-time feel without getting caught up in teaching the reader about the world they were experiencing.

Better than you can imagine: real, hard, true, brutal, tragic.
Impressive tour de force hard boiled fiction where the bad guys have a heart and nobody catches a break but the law.
