Can two people born and raised in the same home be completely different? The answer is yes. While Alex Nicholas built a career as a loan shark and a bookie, his brother Michael was a direct contrast; he was in the corporate world and wanted no part of his brother’s enterprise. One day while sitting at Grimaldi’s with Maria, the woman he sold the restaurant to, he was shot by a young man, who was eventually put down by the numerous cops hanging around the restaurant. With the young man dead and no real lead as to who sent him, Michael has to figure out who killed his brother. Without knowledge as to how his brother's business works, what will Michael do? Will he find his brother's killer? Will he take over the business? To find out more, read a copy of the book Death Never Sleeps by E.J. Simon.
 
What I loved about this book was how detailed it was. The author did a remarkable job describing the scenes; it felt like I was watching an action movie. From the moment Alex died, I knew that everything would be a rollercoaster—there were so many deaths, and everyone seemed to have an ulterior motive, which made the book suspenseful from beginning to end. My favorite character in the book is Michael. Even though he initially didn't know anything about his brother's business, he tried to settle his brother's debt to Sharkey to protect the people he loved and his brother's business associates.
 
The inclusion of artificial intelligence was another aspect of the book that I loved. I was curious to find out what Alex was so excited to tell his brother about just before his death, and I can assure you, I wasn't disappointed.
 
There is absolutely nothing to dislike about this book—it was professionally well edited; I found only one error, so I rate it 5 out of 5 stars and recommend it to lovers of fiction and people who appreciate themes of artificial intelligence.

It sounds like this book is a beautiful thriller. It is so true that siblings born and raised in the same household won't necessarily be similar. However there is a brotherly bond between Alex and Michael. The reader can guess it is there because Alex wanted to share something exciting with his brother; and after his death, Michael is doing everything to find out who was behind his brother's murder. I will add this book to my shelves, thank you for the review.

The title of this book, "Death Never Sleeps" by E. J. Simon, aptly conveys the reality of death - that it is consistently roaming the planet, sucking away lives morning, noon and night. It just never sleeps!
The story is a family crime thriller of two brothers who lived opposite lives - one on the edge of danger and the other in the coordinated corporate world. Did Michael, the cushy corporate, find out who killed his brother? Grab a copy of this thriller and find out.

Two brothers, Alex and Michael Nicholas, raised in the same household, lead vastly different lives—Alex as a loan shark and bookie, and Michael in the corporate world. When Alex is mysteriously shot and killed, Michael, who has no knowledge of his brother's underworld dealings, must figure out who killed him and decide whether to take over his business. *Death Never Sleeps* by E.J. Simon is a gripping thriller filled with suspense, unexpected deaths, and characters with hidden motives. The book's detailed descriptions create a vivid, movie-like experience. The inclusion of artificial intelligence adds an intriguing twist, particularly in a key revelation that happens just before Alex's death. The reviewer praises the book's editing and suspenseful narrative, rating it 5 out of 5 stars and recommending it to fans of fiction and AI themes.
