Why read it?

1 author picked Opposite Sully's Gym as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Another vivid and beguiling mystery from Canadian author Alexis Stefanovich-Thomson.

What begins as a gritty, urban whodunnit soon opens-up into a thriller involving an international conspiracy. I haven’t been so wrapped-up in a historical novel since Walter Mosley’s "Devil in a Blue Dress".
