[Jaime · Rating 4 out of 5]

This collection of short stories was deliciously deviant, with a level of violence that reminded me of J.A. Konrath writing as Jack Kilborn. It’s a pull-no-punches, brain-splattering level of violence that may seem extreme to some, but that I think fits perfectly with the fantastical nature of the stories. You won’t agree with each protagonist’s reason for the violence, but I think that makes it more interesting. I was especially intrigued by the final story, Nemcoff’s Nemesis, which has appeared before in an audio anthology about a terrorist attack on the U.S. It’s a story that made me think after I was finished, and I actually went back and re-read a few sections to make sure I understood what happened.

This collection is perfect for anyone who has just wanted to go home and scream after a long day at work. Just don’t let your boss catch you reading it at your desk.

I don't normally read this type of novel, especially one by two authors, but I have to admit that once I stared this arsenal of short stories, I was hooked and the book soon became my free time companion while on a recent trip.

I'm sure we have all had bad bosses at times and with the thought of killing one or two always furthest from my mind, the execution, (excuse the pun), of said tales is astounding.

Both Colin and Mark have managed to suck me into knowing their dark, dirty little secrets, making me almost an accomplice at worst or an eye witness at the very least.

If you like your crime dark, sympathetic, surprising and realistic then I suggest you take a shot at this novel, which is far safer than taking a shot at you're own boss.

Thank you gentlemen.

HIGHLY satisfying for anyone who's ever had a boss from Hell!

This is actually a series of short stories but is a quick, light read. Action packed and violent...it feels like an extension of the Twilight Zone.
