I appreciate character-driven storylines more than fast-paced ones. Although it seems like Alex's character needs more development, this still seems like a fairly good read. Thank you for your insightful review!

Your description of the book really provoked my interest and made me curious to read the book. Though the issues with Alex's character seem like a serious flaw to me, the book still sounds great and enjoyable. Thanks for the great review!

I like books that make me think about what I would do in similar circumstances. The first pages of the free sample were well written (and made me hungry :-D), after reading your review I think this is a book I would enjoy.

This is a strange and captivating tale on crime, temptation, murder, mystery, thriller, and highlighting the ease of corruption. The book has a free sample on Amazon Kindle and an amazing OnlineBookClub review. Congrats on the BOTD.

Set in a cemetery, with the suitable chilling atmosphere, this sounds like a book that I will enjoy. The plot about a strange man asking them to do something sinister, for a large amount of money, sounds intriguing to me as I have often thought about a situation like this. Your review described the book excellently and I look forward to reading this book.

This sounds like an interesting and chilling story. It’s always interesting to know how far people will go when money is involved. It seems quite atmospheric with the meeting of the characters in a graveyard, sets the scene for a more sinister plot line. Thanks for a great review.

At their second meeting, what David asks Alex, Trevor, and Chad to do is more sinister than they expected. Then he offers them five million dollars to do it. Will they accept the money and go through with it? I look forward to finding out. Congratulations on the BOTD.

What would Alex, Trevor, and Chad be willing to do for 5 million dollars? I'm drawn to the first-person narration and the chilling atmosphere of the novel. Thanks for your review!

Oh, how I adore those "unexpected accidents" scenarios! Seemingly random meeting of strangers, but is everything as it loks like? Did it happened by chance or sinister intent all together? What is asked from them and will they be alright in the end? Very intriguing, mysterious and appealing. Thanks for recommendations and congrats on BOTD!

It's interesting that a man offers two guys he doesn't know to do things for him in exchange for money, especially not knowing who these guys are. On the other hand, the two guys that are offered this chance don't know anything about this mysterious man asking them to do things for him. Sounds ominous and also suspenseful.
