Great book. Very well written by an established journalist. Same story as "Doctor Dealer" by Bowden. Both are great in their own right. Buy it..

This is one of the best books I've ever read. Not one page was boring. I would recommend this book to anyone. The author does such a great job on her research, I really wish there where other books she wrote that were similar to this story. This book would be 6 plus stars if that was an option. Buy it now!!!
Great look at the Philly coke biz in the 80's

Being from philly, i know alot of the characters in this book. that being said, i know alot of the characters in alot of gangster books written about philly, and alot of them suck or are a bunch of lies. this one is an exception! it's true, interesting and very detailed. so detailed that there's a chapter that basically tells you step by step how to re-rock coke. Carol Saline did a great job. i was impressed. AAAAAAA+++++++ also, 'doctor dealer' is pretty good too. it was written by mark bowden, the guy that wrote 'black hawk down'. both authors are local philly writers.
Money temps even the rational

An interesting tale of Larry Lavin. A dentist with a career ahead of him. The Lure of money led to him dabble in the "Candy" of the 1980's. Intriguing was how he hid so close to the authorities as a fugitive. Good reading. Perhaps he was pursuing what many of taught is the American Dream....well worth the read.
