Customer Reviews

Oh, Larry, where art thou?

With this one I've finally gotten my grubby paws on the complete (published in book format and more or less fictional) works of Larry Beinhart. And I loved it so much (as usual) that now I'm heartbroken. There was no new book from Beinhart since mid-90s, and I miss them sorely. Re-reading is fun, in this case enormous fun, but I WANT MORE!...OK, ad rem. Great book. Mother-in-law scenes galore, plus spooks, musclemen, Czech mafiosi and Japanese businessmen with all the manners of hungry sharks. And Tony Casella, who's so much one of a kind that you'd wish you were like him, even with the stuff he has to face in his life.Buy it. Then go buy Beinhart's other novels. And weep like me, after you're done laughing.

This guy is a GREAT writer

I read this book several years ago, and it is a crime in itself that the book is out of print. Tony Cassella is an engaging character, the plot is gripping AND it has a nifty "twist" such as you also find in American Hero. I certainly wish we were going to get more of this clever and believable detective, but I do understand that Mr. Beinhart has a living to make.
