Like the other Thuglit collections, this one contains a number of excellent well-written tales.  Through The Perilous Night describes what happens when a girl can't leave a man in peace.  Going In Style is a clever yarn about what happens when three geriatrics leave the assisted living facility and head to Skid Row to purchase some heroin.  Bet It All On Black is about bookies, loan sharks, and family values.  Brass tells the tale of what happens when a guy is sent out to entertain two hit men from ou of town.  Under the Bus tells what happens when whores get mixed up with politicians.  Gallows Point is the story of two retired mafiosos who square off in A final battle.  Allure Furs is a coming of age tale in Hollywood told in a honest voice.  The final yarn is Of Being Darker Than Light is about biker gangs and cops and the open road.  If that whets your appetite, then dig in.
