Industry Reviews "The author's quest for laconic, worldly understatement produces a kind of fluffy, homogeneous glaze in which everything--from the heartfelt motivations to the sincere backdrops--is lyrically immersed. Think of Hallmark on steroids, or the stuff they put inside Twinkies." Leonard
"The story moves like a World War II movie...The fun of the tale is in the action." Blount
"Lush and violent and sentimental before delivering a blazing climax." Blount
"A violent erotic Mexican tale." Blount
