When it comes to big loads of money, trust nobody!I probably wouldn't last very long as a career criminal. I probably would be on edge the whole time and would blow everyone away because I wouldn't be able to trust that any of my partners would be loyal. If I tried to pull a heist, the outcome might...
There is one perfectly reason why I consider Agatha Christie as one of my favourite authors, because she was not pretentious and knew that what she wrote was crime fiction with the sole purpose of entertainment. Her books were not commentaries on racism, on human psychology or something “much deepe...
One Kickass Crime NovelI had to put down one of Stephen King's long-winded tales, as well as a Dean Koontz self-absorbed Oddity because I didn't want to stop reading "The Wheelman." I'll get back to those guys later, but for now I'm going to hunt down the next Swierczynski crime novel—way more fun...

Almost every time I picked this book up, I dozed off. What had made this experience so frustrating was that I really liked it and I woul...
I'm still trying to comb my hair back down and brush the grit out of my teeth after jumping in the passenger side with "the wheelman" Lennon. The plot snaps along at a breakneck pace setting I'm sure the world record for the most double dealing, double crosses in the history of literature. The pros...
Mute getaway driver Patrick Lennon thought it was a routine bank job until the black van rammed them and everything went to hell. Amidst a maze of murder and double crosses, can Lennon recover the $650,000?Wow. I'd been aware of this book for a couple years before I finally picked it up and now I'...
What a fun, fun book. This is the story of Lennon, an Irish born criminal getaway driver (Wheelman) who is unable to speak. He is involved in a robbery that, as often happens in books like this, goes horribly wrong. He finds himself chased by a variety of other criminals and corrupt police in Philad...
