Professional Reviews

by Gordon Wills Johnson - editor Freelance Magazine
The language throughout, in dialogue and description is authentically 1930's. It would be easy to believe the book was actually written then - and the story is believable with plenty of action. An attractive cover too.

Ian Mune
A good robust story with some great characters. Kiwi to the core!

Michael King
Enjoyed it very much.
