A review by deearr
Gravy Train by Tess Makovesky
5.0
The story revolves around money, a whole pile of it, money that was never anybody’s, not really, but as the story unwinds, everyone feels that the money is theirs. The author dives headfirst into the individual reasons and thoughts and we are provided deep characterizations as a result. The story is as gritty as the world Ms. Maravesky’s characters live in, and the plot drives us from chapter to chapter.
Not as dark as some of the crime noir fiction available, but certainly strong enough to live in the same neighborhood. All the characters have their quirks and faults, as well as the qualities that draw us to them. I enjoyed this book. Four-and-a-half stars, rounded to five for this outstanding effort.
