Full of the atmosphere of Chicago during prohi biting, I'm guessing.. I'd call it a horror story but very well done. Violence, double-crossing a d horror if that's your thing.

I loved this book by a new-to-me author. His blending of real-life people and events with a fictional story was masterful. His characters moved me, and the story zipped along to reach a satisfying conclusion. The narration was spot-on. Marvellous all round.

Imaginative story, convincing settings, great characters.

I loved The Axe Mans Jazz, so I was excited to read the next escapades of Michael and Aida. Brilliant performance, and writing! Cant wait for the next one now.

Excellent Sequel.

I loved the different angles and perspectives, the references to Capone and Louis Armstrong, the gripping writing and the engaging narration. So many different voices from one reader, male and female. A joy to listen to.

Brilliant story, superb reading
