Customer Reviews

George V. Higgins at his best!

George V. Higgins has earned his place as the Balzac of Boston, describing through the use of dialogue various low-level crooks, pols, lawyers, and other low life. No one can top him for a sense of the language, nor for the desperation in his characters. He really sets the pace in this genre. Bomber's Law is as good as it comes.

I've never read anything like it.

The dialogue went all over the place but in the in, I liked it. Nothing made sense until the end.
