Johnny and his buddy Goat hate their lives and decide to rob the store they work at for "the big score". There is a little more motivation than that-- particularly the future of Arty, Johnny's dependent brother. The plot and characters are bare bones and there are very few surprises lying in wait. "Final Spin" is short and easily read in a few hours, especially because you know you are not missing any important plot points. I am reluctant to give this only 2 stars... it is not offensive in any way... but it feels like reading a sketch or outline of a fuller novel in development.

Thank you to St. Martin's Press and NetGalley for providing the Advance Reader Copy in exchange for an honest review.

Quick read you don’t want to put down, even if you can predict the story and the twists and turns in advance. Kind of like a nascar race. It is fast, you know where it is going, but you keep watching for the inevitable crashes along the way.

Thanks to NetGalley for an advance copy of this book.
This book is quick, fast-paced, and will have you rooting for the protagonist as he tries to figure out the best way out of his dead-end life.
