A Quiet Vendetta |
|
 | This book took over my life for two weeks reading as I was, some pages here, some pages there, as time allowed. Had I been on a long haul flight I would only have stopped for eating and calls of nature. If you love fast moving heady mafia tales of assasination, loyalty, intrigue, deception, plotting - if you love the heady melting pot of New Orleans, New York, LA, Havana and Chicago - if you like your mobsters, Italian, Irish, Creole and if you appreciate masterly storytelling, massive characters, tracking a history spanning the last 5 decades then buy this book and prepare for utmost enjoyment. It is work of art: wordy, pounding, sensitive, beautifully written, shocking and believable. It dosen't let up for a page and although fictonal names come and are soon forgotten but you might remember Ernesto Perez for quite a while. Also read ' A Quiet Belief in Angels', of equal power and Ellory genius. Don't be put off that it was a 'Richard and Judy Book Club Selection'. read more.
