Greg find himself in a situation he cannot understand, his friend Charlie has just called telling him there is big game and a winner is to be given 5-digit numbers. He tries to find out from Charlie but Charlie is reluctant to talk about it on the phone and hung up the phone. Charlie had prepared details and even changed his name something from the documents he sent. Greg's dog is killed and he escapes fearing for his life and calls Charlie where they change there meeting point but on the same day Charlie is killed. He decides to find the person behind the murder of his and what was the cause of his death while and at the same trying to cover his tracks so that they don't eliminate him too as he also find love from a friend of Charlie, Corky.

I literally enjoyed reading this book. The tittle "Tinman" suits the book well cause the story revolves around it. Karen Black and Matt Walton begins this book on a dilemma capturing the readers attention and making him have the urge to find out about who was responsible on the killing of Charlie, and what was it that he wanted to tell Malcom Gregory

The book was exceptionally well edited by the author, the writers choice of word is good. The vivid description like on page 114 "“An aged maid in a dark gray uniform with starched white collar, cuffs and cap appeared, seemingly out of the woodwork, and took the camellias" it helps you create a mental image that makes find yourself in the books world where here it shows how Charlie's mother was dressed. The use local dialect such as bracero on page 105,also make the story interesting. I give it 4 out 4 stars.

for those who love and crime stories this book is the likely recommendation cause its gonna capture your attention and its interesting to read, and also its has few pages and its not boring.
