5.0 out of 5 stars A Suspenseful, fast paced read.
I have read many, many thrillers and law novels and "On the Edge" is one of my favorites. It has been a year since I read it and various lines and scenes from the novel still come to me. It is not depressing but a mystery type thriller. The characters have real flaws that I found intriguing. I particularly enjoyed the "friendship" between the...

...and signifying NOTHING. I am an avid fan of mystery novels, and I must say that it is books like this that give our genre a bad name. Predictable in both randomness and meaninglessness, On the Edge is nowhere near the cutting edge of mystery novels.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Suspenseful, fast paced read., August 29, 2003
I have read many, many thrillers and law novels and "On the Edge" is one of my favorites. It has been a year since I read it and various lines and scenes from the novel still come to me. It is not depressing but a mystery type thriller. The characters have real flaws that I found intriguing. I particularly enjoyed the "friendship" between the drugdealer and Frank August. Overall its a great read. 5 stars.

5.0 out of 5 stars PHENOMENAL, November 20, 1999
One of the best books I've read in a long time. Once you start reading it, there's no putting it down.

4.0 out of 5 stars well done, October 20, 2004
This review is from: On the Edge (Hardcover)
Nice job all around. Apparantly the author worked as a P.I.

for a while back in his past, etc., and it shows. I think he ought to consider writing another Frank August adventure.

As far as that one reviewer giving this a single star...totally

unfair.

This is not a hack work. Recommended.
