Popsugar 2022: 46) a book about someone leading a double life

A tale about two kidney thieves and their kingpin boss tangling with a drug lord and the FBI could have been horrific, but the cast of big name actors delivering the lines with humor definitely helped this story tip over to the silly end of the dark comedy spectrum.

I got this book from my audible originals monthly list, and I'm glad I did. It's incredibly funny, I had some great laughs from it... the audible cast also helps a lot.

A quick, fast paced romp that showcases supposed do-gooders Sam and Abe, who lure douche bags under false pretenses and who obviously deserve to lose a kidney all in the name of well... goodness.

When Sam has second thoughts on one of their marks, it sets off a chain of events that leads to dire consequences. Ensue a multitude of haywire antics as everyone involved tries to cover their tracks to not get caught by the FBI.

A comedy of errors. Entertaining enough.
