Review
"Temple writes with sophistication and wit." --Washington Post Book World, November 7, 2005
From the Publisher
"The engaging Jack and his friends are absolutely original and unfailingly amusing, and figuring out their speech patterns is great fun, even in its difficulty. Readers will take to this series like a thirsty man to a strong drink and bang the bar for another round." Π²Πβ Publishers Weekly
"Temple writes with sophistication and wit." Π²Πβ Washington Post
"This is a tight, noirish thriller with a great sense of humor and the toughness of a Mickey Spillane pulp novel." Π²Πβ Rocky Mountain News
