hard, tough and extremely funny writing
*Crime Time*
A crackling thriller, vivid, scabrous and poignant
*Uncut*
Not just a murder story, not just funny... The humor is
blasphemous, scatological and obscene. Which is perfectly
appropriate to this story of a corrupt homicide detective and his
brother, a priest, who share a taste for comedy, high and low; a
ghetto instinct for the edge; and a fine Irish sense of sin
*Harpers*
Scathingly funny
*New York Times*
Tougher than anything by Hammett
*New York Times Book Review*
