Typical gangster book permeated with annoying wise guy talk. Literally everyone in this book talks in such an unnecessary and contrived manner. Plot is not particularly creative or intriguing.

The book is hard nosed up and a really good read until the final few chapters then it sort of backflips and turns into some sort of midday movie with the writing getting cheesy and the ending being terribly full of cheese. Almost completely ruins the book.

I liked it, liked it, liked it....then didn't like it.
