"Another fast and furious novel from Mr. Kregas. This time with a new protagonist and set in 1960s Boston. Plenty of action and some quirky characters make for a very enjoyable read. Looking forwards to next one already." - Amazon Review
"Murder Thriller, ‘Club Cargo,’ is a royal flush. The author’s plain-spoken and straight-forward storytelling calls a spade a spade in delivering a slice of life in Boston during the Sixties. Friction between the Italian and Irish Mob factions plays a heavy hand in propelling this page-turner." - Amazon Review
