Publishers Weekly, starred review
Coleman’s second series outing (after Where It Hurts) is part police procedural, part human interest story, part philosophical monolog, and totally fun reading.
Coleman’s writing mimics Parker’s, with short chapters, snappy repartee, and just enough action… Like all Parker novels, it is a great, fast read, recommended for all detective fiction fans.
