Review of 'Sinner man' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

Spotted on the Library "new" shelf; this was a fairly quick read, and the first Lawrence Block for me. Perfect format and pulp cover - going to look further into Hard Case press, they seem similar to Planet Stories. Story had a lot of action and rough sex, but was uneven. A nice reminder of when a social security card wasn't meant to be used as ID. I understand Mr Block has done much better, and will check out more soon.
