Hobbs, Roger

A thrill-ride for hard-boiled noir listeners and fans of highly detailed, gritty fiction about the criminal world. A dynamic duo of superb writing and outstanding narration. Libraries would do well to place this audiobook on their shelves.

The novel is frenetic yet methodical, a police procedural told from the wrong side of the law. With its unpredictable plot and an antihero readers will take a perverse joy in cheering for, this book will attract fans of Lee Child, George Pelecanos, or classic hard-boiled fiction.
