Praise
"To read a Solomon Jones book is to become so engrossed with the pictures in your mind's eye - the gritty action in Philadelphia alleys, the salacious sex, and the dirty dealings in dark bars - that you can't put it down until you are finished. This is definitely the case in PAYBACK....[The book] is a page-turner, and, as promised, surprises and pleasures are neatly doled out."
