Review: An Insurance Investigator with a Handicap
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 06 6, 2014
It's not easy mingling unarmed with underworld characters.  Quinn doesn't have much choice, however, since he's an ex-convict and, as such, can't carry. But his job as an insurance investigator calls for plenty of hazardous encounters with criminals who pack plenty of artillery.  He has to rely on his fists and lots of speed, both afoot and in his car. The theft of an expensive Vermeer leads to several close encounters of a physical kind, leaving him with bruised knuckles but otherwise mostly intact.  For the reader looking for plenty of action, several glimpses into the more fatal side of the City of Brotherly Love, and a protagonist hovering between mayhem and a just possible romance, this will be a satisfying tale.  The plot is complex, the writing is crisp, the ending is a bit of a surprise.
