This was a surprise of a story and I really had a hard time putting it down. The characters and plot sucked me in and kept me entertained in a variety of ways. I loved the way the author wrote the book - it felt like I was right there inside of the story itself. Great job! I think my next read with be the prequel to this story! )

....he tells the story like it is an autobiography. in a way. Interesting, has some historical facets to it and the characters are all like-able. I will be reading his other novel, I am sure. There is some \"sax and violins\" (if you catch my drift) in this novel but it is not filled with it and it does fit the story. A little repetitious but mostly enjoyable and a page-turner. )
