de Green, Norman - Género: English
Sinopsis
Stoney gave up drinking, but it couldn't save his marriage. Leaving the big house in New Jersey to his wife and kids, he's living in the City--still working the profitable, if not 100 percent legal, angles with his partner, "Fat Tommy Bagadonuts." Then, out of the blue, Stoney's teenage daughter shows up with a problem: an unwanted admirer who needs to be cooled down . . . or eliminated.
But the secrets Marisa's been keeping from her father--like her night job as an exotic dancer--can't compare with those being guarded by the mysterious and violent man who's stalking her: a dangerous enigma with no past and a made-up name. He does, however, have lots of money--which makes him a very tempting mark for Stoney, Tommy, and their young streetwise "apprentice," Tuco. But people who look too closely into this guy's history have a habit of turning up dead.

Reseñas Varias sobre este libro
This is the first Norman Green book I've read, it was recommended by a friend at the Library. I enjoyed it, a quick read about a New Jersey wise guy organizing a sting to punish someone who has interfered with his family.general-fiction1 Patrick232 9
I grabbed this on impulse.
Green is a pretty good stylist and keeps the story moving. I'm reading another of his that's not as focused.
If you Westlake's Richard Stark novels you'll this.1 Nikki494 129
This is the literary equivalent of a mediocre action movie you find yourself watching at three in the morning when you can't sleep. It's just interesting enough to hold your attention, but not good enough to remember the next day.novels1 Mac C110 5
Great story! Thought it would focus more on forensic reconstruction (the main character's profession), but was disappointed there. However, the intrigue, interactions, and emotions made up for that lack. Will be reading more from this author! mystery1 Teen312 24
Stoney's slightly illegal lifestyle turns shadier when he finds an easy mark in a wealthy but dangerous man who is stalking his daughter.

I'm not a big fan of this genre, but I enjoyed the read nonetheless. Might make a good movie.1 Maddy1,695 77
PROTAGONIST: Stoney, con man
SETTING: New Jersey
RATING: 3.5
WHY: Even though he's given up drinking, Stoney's marriage falls apart. He's long been a kind of con artist with an uncontrollable temper. He's beginning to mellow. His teenaged daughter asks for his help under false pretenses. He soon finds that she has secrets and a real problem with a dangerous man that is obsessed with her. Together with his cohorts, he puts together a scam that doesn't quite work out. Lots of interesting characters. A few too many digressions from the narrative.2017-reads Janel Tortorice203 1 follower
