review 1: Another great mystery from the author of The Detroit Electric Scheme. My favorite part about this series is how beautifully it portrays my adopted city in the early days of the auto industry. Although some liberties are taken with events, lots of real people make appearance here too: Henry Ford and his son Edsel, crime bosses of warring Italian mob families, and the teenage boys who will someday become the Purple Gang. Fantastic noir, great reading.
review 2: This is a continuation of the story started in " The Detroit Electric Scheme". I think the books should be read together and in order. For a reader just picking up this book without reading the first one, there will be confusion. I think that the attempt to give the background of the charachters and st... moreory line from the first novel is weak, but if you read the books in order you have a first rate thriller. less
