Title: A literary 2x4 to the head- not for the squeamish
Product review: I've read other novels written by Don Winslow and enjoyed them, most notably The Winter of Frankie Machine. Not so this time around- Power of the Dog bludgeons the reader from the first page and never lets up- savage beatings, torture, gruesome murders of women and children, the ravages of drug addiction- and delivered in hundreds of one-sentence paragraphs. I just wanted to put the book down and take a nice, long shower. The world of narcotics trafficking seeems ripe for a great thriller, but this isn't it.
