Neil Christiansen has a way with words and imagery that pulls you into the gritty underworld of Chicago, in his modern noir thriller Dark White. Dynamic characters finding their way through the gray landscape of morality. Hold on it's quiet the ride.
I really enjoyed this book. It was riveting and I read it in two sittings. The characters were outstanding and the writing is excellent. Treat yourself to this book!
What would you do for the love of your life? Would you kill to defend them? What if no one believed you? Not even the person you were protecting. Gavin Gayle has a problem. A different problem every month it seems. His problems are delivered to him to take care of. The problem is, they aren’t his problems. Gavin’s other problem is he’s dead. At least as far as the world knows. Step inside Gavin’s world in this gritty crime noir where the guilty and the innocent blur lines of morality. When the justice system fails, Gavin is called in to finish the job. This crime story burned through all my free time until I reached the end. An addicting story with interesting characters, this book was well worth a read. I’d be very interested to see this be the start of a series.
I felt like this was a gripping, exciting noir novel. The characters were captivating, the story sucked me right in. I’d like to see what else they get up to outside of this particular book.
DNF. Stopped at 41 percent it was interesting and really had me reading but every now and then there were mentions of how fragile and scared women are of men in general. That kind of made my eyes roll. It was fun but I just disagree with the main character I guess.
