6/10, well where do I begin with this since this book started promisingly but then it just let me down in the end unfortunately and I felt that I could've read a better one than this or the author could've done a better job on writing this. It begins with a fascinating main character Rey Tanic who was the son of a drug dealer who was in prison however he escaped and was hiding somewhere while Rey was just hanging out with his two friends whose names I forgot when he saw that and decided to act upon that. He later finds out about his father's drug operation and how he made loads of illegal money that he spent on cars and even an entire skyscraper that would be built in Sydney, Australia. The side characters weren't that fleshed out and one of them was even abused in the past but I simply didn't care for them even though I should but they didn't have enough depth for me to give a hoot about it. Towards the second half of the book, it underwhelmed me as Rey smashed his father's car because he bought it with laundered money, to be fair it was symbolic but it's not ok to destroy someone's property which I didn't like and the ending was the last nail in the coffin as an image of Rey's father was projected onto the Sydney Opera House and the police somehow now knew where he was and his appearance and he was arrested and the ending just fizzled out like that, what a shame however if you like crime novels pick this or read Cop and Robber by Tristan Bancks.… (mere)
