“Vachss is unlike any other crime writer. . . . Readers who want to visit a new twist on the dark side will be mesmerized.”
—Booklist
“[A] raucous ride. . . . The enigmatic Cross and his crew of misfits, who occupy a fortified position in a ruined Chicago, kill for money, or to make a point, though they do neither indiscriminately, as shown in Vachss’s hard-hitting sequel to 2012’s Blackjack.”
—Publishers Weekly
