Darrin Atkins (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: January 14, 2002

The money you took from me is all that I can think about now that you have disappeared into the darkness and the void of society. The money you took from me was all that I used to have and my entire future was wrapped up in that wad of ten-dollar bills that I had tried to hide from you. The deceit you were capable of was astounding and I curse the night sky that I ever met you and I wish the worst luck in the world upon you. Give back the money you took from me, the money that never existed at all.

5.0 out of 5 stars awesome crime story book, February 22, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: The Money You Took From Me (Paperback)

This book was fabulous! As a piece of fiction in the crime/mean-streets genre, I thought it was remarkable because of how rough and tough the city characters were. The ambiance was well written and the fight scenes were fun to read. I recommend this book to anyone who wants to escape into the seedy, dirty, underworld of vicious street life in the big city.
