This book is a fast-paced, intelligent, action/revenge story that was a lot of fun to read. It's one of those books you won't be able to put down and will read in one sitting. If you like Elmore Leonard novels you'll love Thick as Thieves.
Great beach book!

Quick, fast-paced. You'll want to read it in one sitting, so find a rainy day, a comfortable chair and start reading...you won't want to put it down.
Elmore Leonard WISHES He Could Write This Well
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
Although it is popular to sketch the plot in these reviews, I won't spoil it for readers. Suffice to say that, if you like cop/thief/Mafia type stories this is one of the most intelligent, realistic thrillers of the genre. The "hero" is a thief; a consumate pro. Once the ending is known, it seems inevitable but you can't see it coming anyway. I wish author Patrick Quinn had written many books but - alas! - this is the only one I could find listed after I read "Thick" and went hunting. If you like the genre, you'll really like this book.

My kind of fiction. Up there with Elmore Leonard and Michael Connelly for dialogue. I saw the film derived from this novel which sent me to the internet to find the original. Enjoyable film but only essentials from the novel. Both are worth your time if you are into this genre and if you are you will love it. Bad ... dudes, smart guys, dumb .... I had trouble finding this as it is out of print. Good luck getting a copy but it's worth the trouble.
