I happened to find a rather old copy of this book in our bookshelf back home and picked it up because I wanted something rather small and light to read on a flight. After I finished it (it did not take too long) I think I'm going to categorise it as an in-flight book. It is small and light, as mentioned before, it is fast paced enough to not bore you and it is not complex enough to make you want to reach for dictionaries or make you drift off mentally or fall asleep.It's been a long time since I read a book that was just a story without complexity (of words or theme). It was like picking up a Sidney Sheldon book again. It has crime, it has revenge, promiscuous relationships etc. It revolves around the mafia and the life of a man who kills three witnesses for them before being hunted down himself. It is no Godfather of course, but it is an enjoyable enough read.
