This review is from: Death Wish (Paperback)
This story revolves around Jesse Taylor and some dude named Jimmy, an Italian guy. I forget his last name. The story was fast paced, characters solid and both had a back story. Very interesting and hard. You can compare this one story to the Kenyatta stories like Crime Partners, Death List, etc. It amazes me that everything that takes place in this one story is comparable to a whole series. This story paved the way for protagonist in the Dutch series. A lot of fighting, a lot of guns, a lot of dying. I would suggest anyone reading this to get ready sit back and enjoy the show.....the gun show.
