Customer Reviews

well done

Nice job all around. Apparantly the author worked as a P.I. for a while back in his past, etc., and it shows. I think he ought to consider writing another Frank August adventure. As far as that one reviewer giving this a single star...totally unfair. This is not a hack work. Recommended.

A Suspenseful, fast paced read.

I have read many, many thrillers and law novels and "On the Edge" is one of my favorites. It has been a year since I read it and various lines and scenes from the novel still come to me. It is not depressing but a mystery type thriller. The characters have real flaws that I found intriguing. I particularly enjoyed the "friendship" between the drugdealer and Frank August. Overall its a great read. 5 stars.

On The Edge

I read about 75 books a year by such authors as James Lee Burke,Michael Connelly,and many others. I read this book in two sittings and enjoyed it from start to finish.I hope there will be more titles like this one in the near future.I give this book 5 STARS.

PHENOMENAL

One of the best books I've read in a long time. Once you start reading it, there's no putting it down.
