i loved the mix of crime book, war story, character study & whatever else this book was! the crime plots had my adrenaline pumping at times, billy's autobiography got me tearing up & him and alice's friendship made me smile. i liked billy and felt for him, even though many of his actions were questionable. it made me think about morals - mine, his, and in general. the only thing i didn't love was the detailed descriptions of his time in iraq - while relevant to billy's story, i don't much care for war stories

Far from Stephen King's horror. Billy Summers is a hit man, but one that will tug at your heart strings and make you fall in love. He brings you along on his wild ride along with, Alice who falls for him will follow him down his rabbit hole if he lets her.
