Outstandingly creative plot and pacing

I can’t even begin to say how excellent this series is. Part two was so much better than part one in terms of the twists and turns, and the craziness of many of the characters. And yet, in spite of everything, one had compassion with almost all of them since one could see how they got caught in the web of events, which made them into something completely different from what they had started out as. Absolutely fabulous crime novel. Should be mandatory reading for anyone crazy enough to consider entering the drug trade. If this novel doesn’t deter you, I don’t know what will. Narration was also outstanding.

An Excellent Adventure

Good characters, good story and excellent narration. A very suspenseful story with some twists!
