A review by winterflowerreads
Hell's Kitchen by Jeffery Deaver, William Jefferies

4.0

8.0/10
The plot of the novel is great. However, in my opinion there is too much writing. Deaver gives unnecessary background information, that has no apparent function in the novel. This bothered me quite a bit, because it made the novel a bit boring. It was a bit tedious at some points. Apart from this fact, the novel was very realistic and it contained heartfelt emotions.
“I don’t know. I can find out.” The way Bailey emphasised the last sentence explained a little bit more about how gears got gummed up. {…} “that’s how it works in Hell’s Kitchen. Everybody’s a sellout. Maybe even me.” The smile faded. “Or maybe I just have a high price. That’s ethics around here - when it takes a lot to buy you.” - Louis Bailey, p.46
