Snitch World is made up of an odd grouping, from the seasoned, petty criminals to the mysterious nouveau femme fatale whose criminal tricks of the trade are born from the new economy. This world is a San Francisco of menacing technology, where the old cons come up too short, too slow and where the crimes of the night have made way for those committed from the glow of a screen. Jim Nisbet, with his characteristic humour and brilliant prose, creates a world where to trust is to possibly sacrifice all. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

But, San Francisco is a small city filled with many cultures and criss- crossing the same blocks as Klinger and his ilk are an army of yuppies running from one dot-com to the next and one IPO to the next. The story tells the tale of how Klinger’s path crosses with that of these yuppies. It is not exactly worlds colliding, but there is a different mood, a different pace to their lives and you begin to wonder who is more desperate, more trapped.
This is a book that is simply beautifully written, perfectly paced, and gently takes the reader into a tale of modern noir. This is worth reading. It certainly is. ( )
