"And maybe if he'd stayed a no one from nowhere one more man would still be breathing." That was what went through my head as I finished reading the last line. It's a great read that makes you think about the complexity of human realtions.

I love the way the author timelessly captured 1920's love affair meets murder meets a fool in love.

I didn’t love it, but I didn’t hate it either. I do appreciate the irony laced throughout the story, but often times it was a bit of a slog to get through.
