He counted them as they fell; thirty pieces in all, one for each year of his life. Little ones for the two years he'd wasted as a cop. Shreds for the four years as a kid in the ring before that--he'd never made the top. Bigger bits for two years also wasted in trying his hand at professional gambling; and the six final pieces that spelled his rise from special reporter helping out with a police shake-up coverage, through a regular leg-man turning up rackets, and on up like a meteor until....

Great story

Nice plot, lots of twists and turns, not much technobabble. Reader is OK even though a little flat. I highly recommend this.

The reader's voice grew on me. I appreciate his calm reading of what is a very violent story.

A novel, not a story. I liked the character development.
