Book Description
This breath-taking book is a nightmare tale of the life and death of Dillon. American gangster. From the first to the last page the ruthlessness of an inhuman killer is set down with stark realism. Here indeed we have an excellent example of what a slick, fast-moving, and tough - really tough - novel should be. The author has painted his foul hoodlums with a bold and unerring brush. We feel this is without doubt a masterpiece in this new & modern style of writing.
