The Pike Boys von Danny Cherry Jr.
Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben.I was a big fan of the Sopranos tv series and the lead character Tony. Really strange to say when he was not a civilized citizen of society. This book reminds me of his issues with what he was doing criminally and working through them with his psychiatrist. His ex-con, judgmental brother reminded me of Tony’s Uncle Junior who was forever criticizing Tony’s way of leading the mob. Plots, twists, and turns… this book has it all.
