Greatest Turn of 20th Century Fiction since that hack Joyce
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This is amazing! The story centers around Walch, good cop goes bad, simple story, right? With Abel's knack for twists, Bait ropes you in. Read it. Put down Ulysses. Read it. This is the new Noir! All hail Abel!
Good, character-driven cop novel
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
Abel's first at bat is a well plotted cop novel with complex character interaction. His writing is subtle (there comes a point in the book when you begin to understand where all the pieces he's laid before you are falling, and it's like WOW), but there's enough violence to keep things visceral. Check out his next, "The Blue Wall." It's even better than "Bait."
