Opinions and book reviews by MysteryNet viewers

Fiction - Suspense | Delacorte Press | Hardcover | March 2005 | $23.00 | 0-385-33725-6

"The edgy, hardboiled action didn't let up. Conner Samson is the anti-hero's anti-hero; if it werenÔø‡t for bad luck, he wouldn't have any. Victor Gischler's writing was terse&emdash;Ôø‡no words wasted. It enhanced and added depth to the characters and story. I liked SUICIDE SQUEEZE so much I bought Mr. Gischler's first two novels."
Jaime E.

"A fast-paced page turner that I had to fight my wife for. She loved it as much I did. A well-written work with great characters."
Tom C.

"This book kept me intrigued from the start with events happening fast and furious. I enjoyed the author's knack for keeping me guessing about who were the good guys and the bad guys, and about who would win out in the end. The story had lots of unexpected twists that kept me wanting to know what monkey wrench would be thrown into the works next."
Kay P.

"SUICIDE SQUEEZE is a fun, rollicking ride through the world of repo man Conner Samson. Twists and turns abound as you go along with Samson to repo a boat housing a potentially deadly secret...secret to Samson that is."
Kimberly B.

"An incredible book. Fast paced and suspenseful. It was so good that I read it in one night! I would recommend this book to anyone who likes mystery and suspense."
Travonna P.

"SUICIDE SQUEEZE is an adventure to read&emdash;Ôø‡extremely enjoyable, clever and exciting. This novel is peopled with memorable characters that have charisma, chutzpah and are unique."
Sharon B.

"This book kept my interest from beginning to end. I liked the way Victor Gischler used two famous people who actually lived and were well known to make the story believable and credible. I would definitely recommend this book to my friends."
Karen L.

"The book is well written, and with its assortment of crooks, scoundrels and ne'er-do-wells will appeal to those who like their mysteries on the dark side."
Joyce J.

"Lest the reader have any doubts, this is a guy's novel—complete with action, bloody fighting, stiff beatings of the kind that only an American icon could withstand, deadly, sexy women, and a constant stream of twentieth century iconography. The plot has enough twists and turns to make even the car chase scenes of seventies movies pale in comparison. Rating: 3++ out of 5"
Jean K.
