I love Irvine Welsh, but this was far from his best. It reads like a standard thriller. His ear for American dialect pales when compared to what he's capable of when writing about his native Scotland. None of the characters stood out. Welsh is capable of so much more.

I really enjoyed how the story built and the only bad thing for me was that there came a point at which my eyes couldn't read quickly enough for me to devour the story! Really gripping, this book had my heart pounding on a number of occasions.
