review 1: 3 1/2 starsThis short novella was a great introduction to an author I know nothing about. In fact I was so taken with it, as soon as I finished reading I also got Crooked little veins, the author’s debut novel.This is the story of Mr Sun, a meticulously professional assassin. In fact he is so obsessively precise that he measures time in seconds, not hours. He has a flawless track record but this assignment may cause him to break all the rules.This story gives you a pretty good idea what it takes to dispose of a body, but without overly gratuitous details. And at $0.99 it’s a bargain buy that is more than worth the time it takes to read it.
review 2: This was a brilliant book. Just the idea of it captivated me, because honestly anything that has someone
... more murdering someone else is going to be okay by my estimation. But, this was better than what I expected. The main character was just incredibly interesting which is what I expect from someone that kills people for a living. What I did not expect was to have another character be as interesting, if not more, than him. I really wanted to know as much about Amanda as I did about him. Both characters were well written the book was short but good and I'm looking forward to reading more from this author. less
