“One of America’s greatest storytellers.” (Stephen King)

Neal Carey is not your usual private eye. A graduate student at Columbia University, he grew up on the streets of New York, usually on the wrong side of the law. Then he met a PI who introduced him to the Bank, an exclusive institution with a sideline in keeping its wealthy clients happy and out of trouble. They pay Neal’s college tuition, and Neal gets an education that can’t be found in any textbook, from learning how to trail a suspect to mastering the proper way to search a room.

Now it’s payback time. The Bank wants Neal to put his skills to work in finding Allie Chase, the rebellious teenage daughter of a prominent senator. The problem is that she’s gone underground in the London punk scene. To get her back, Neal has to follow her into a violent netherworld where drugs run rampant and rage is the name of the game.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"A fresh voice, immensely likeable....Winslow shows he's got what it takes to hook a reader....Where he goes next with Neal is anyone's guess, but it's bound to be a great ride." (Mystery Scene)
"A flair for language, quick wit, and detail complete a winning first novel." (Library Journal)
"Winslow keeps his plot moving quickly despite many twists and turns." (Pittsburgh Press)
Engaging Plot • Well-developed Characters • Unexpected Twists • Witty Dialogue • Compelling Backstory • Perfect Pacing

I really liked this book, the characters and the plot, up to the very end. I could almost believe many of the people and things that happened, but I found the final switcharoo completely unrealistic. I also have my doubts that Neal Carey would simply walk away from a girl whom he obviously had such strong feelings for. I understand that this is the first book in the Neal Carey series. I hope the later ones are better.

Rich characters; conclusion disappoints.(spoilers)

Excellent listen

This author has a good premise for a great book, unfortunatly I'm afraid too much was left unsaid. The finished story left entirely too much undone, too many unanswered questions. Also, trying to cram so much in left me too confused on some of the who's who whole listening; I'm a seasoned listener for years now and can usually follow along, not so much on this one.

pretty good

Not Winslow's best. It does get good towards the end but drags in several places. I don't think I'll continue with the series.

Entertaining but...

My first but definitely not last read of Don Winslow. All of the action, excitement, and plot twists one would expect but the literary construction and funny tongue in cheek humor were unexpected bonuses.

Refreshing

This book was a real departure for me..I usually avoid novels with a focus on drugs, crooks and predictable plots. I was intrigued by the unusual approach the author took .. loved the “anti-hero “ protagonists especially and the humorous repartee between them that afforded many chuckles throughout! Characters well defined and beautifully interpreted by the performer .. Just when I’d think I knew what was to come, the author created more suspense, resulting in more realistic and often unwelcome but very satisfying outcomes.. an erudite and imaginative author whose books I will look for again!

Unlikely hero, quirky premise and satisfying resolution

I thoroughly enjoyed this book and I’m a huge fan of Don Winslow. I’m glad that I went back to listen to some of his older books.

Great listen!!
