Review: Taut, tense, not a wasted word.
Rating: 5 out of 5

I read this book in one evening - I just could not put it down. The writing is tight, tense, with no fluff and the story is compelling. The central character, a professional assassin named Ishmael Toffee, is a highly sympathetic character and the setting -- Cape Town, South Africa -- comes alive in this taut thriller. Excellent read.
