Rate this book
Paul Scott Pronounces Possible Twenty- “Fast paced and a real page turner!”

Charles Stamper calls Possible Twenty- "An offer you can't refuse!"

D. Dixon says- "Loved it, just waiting for the sequel."

Even back in the 1980’s life in Manhattan wasn’t cheap, especially for Tommy Gallagher, a middle class guy struggling to keep up with his wealthier friends. His circumstances seem to take a turn for the better when he opens an “Outlaw Night Club” in an abandoned building in Tribeca. One thing leads to another as his crew stumbles across the first wave of the Ecstasy craze. They start moving volume and making money, and Tommy's situation seems to turn around over night. The stakes really start to escalate when he comes to the attention of powerful gangsters who want to sponsor him, and he begins to make choices that push him further and further away from conventional society. From the tough streets of New York, to the swamps and beaches of South Florida, Tommy Gallagher searches for redemption and a new identity, as he tries to escape the Irish and Italian Mafias who think they own him, and avoid the Russian mob who want to kill him.In some neighborhoods growing up is just hard to do...

Fans of Elmore Leonard will love Possible Twenty!

From the mean streets of 1980's New York to southern most Florida and back again in this very fast paced story. Tommy Gallagher's life gives new meaning to the term "slippery slope". I found myself rooting for the good guys, even though the good guys are kinda scary themsleves. Possible Twenty, a Gangster Tale, is absolutely an offer you cannot and shouldnot refuse! I highly recommend it.

NY gansta fun

Fast paced and a real page Turner. Lots of seedy characters with psychotic habits. Florida vs New York intertwined nicely Predictable female hero saving antics.
