The unarguable success of her sizable tally of crime novels must be a source of envy to other practitioners. Almost from the beginning, she has gleaned praise for her gritty and pungent fiction. Even the very ordinary TV adaptations of such books as Dangerous Lady stripped no lustre from her reputation, when novels as good as The Know flowed from her pen. Her prose style is always pared down and vivid--which is, thankfully, still very much the case with The Graft. Nick Leary is having trouble sleeping, what with sultry heat and business and family problems weighing on his mind. His wife is sleeping beside him, when he hears a noise downstairs--and soon he has to decide how much violence he will use to defend his home and family. The decision he makes is to change his life forever. Nick and his wife are taken to the very extremes of human behaviour--and he is obliged to decide how high a price he will pay to keep what he values most. As ever, Cole exerts an effortless grip throughout her unsettling narrative. We’re used to her exuberantly characterised heroines, but the beleaguered Nick shows that’s she’s just as on-the-nail with her male characters. The edgy plotting has the kind of no-nonsense handling that is Cole's métier. Perhaps a touch more psychological strip-mining of her protagonists would have deepened her achievement, but what the hell--all the right buttons are pressed here.--Ba, 413555031, Contemporary Fiction, 413531031, Fiction Complete, 401420011, Custom Stores, 405736, Special Features, 266239, Books, 418563031, Action & Adventure, 413625031, Crime, Thrillers & Mystery, 413531031, Fiction Complete, 401420011, Custom Stores, 405736, Special Features, 266239, Books, 437421031, Cole, Martina, 437340031, Authors, 401420011, Custom Stores, 405736, Special Features, 266239, Books, 1067226, Crime, Thrillers & Mystery, 51, Audio Cassettes, 1025612, Subjects, 266239, Books, 124624031, General AAS, 267926, Fiction, 51, Audio Cassettes, 1025612, Subjects, 266239, Books, 426317031, Action & Adventure, 72, Crime, Thrillers & Mystery, 1025612, Subjects, 266239, Books, 590756, Contemporary Fiction, 62, Fiction, 1025612, Subjects, 266239, Books, 400530011, English, 400529011, Language (feature_browse-bin), 365481011, Refinements, 266239, Books, 492566011, Books on Cassette, 308724031, Audiobooks, 492562011, Format (binding_browse-bin), 365481011, Refinements, 266239, Books, 182018031, Regular Size, 182016031, Font Size (format_browse-bin), 365481011, Refinements, 266239, Books<
