gripping and also great narrative
Ms. Elizabeth
For the lust of riches, do men fall. Good story. Narrator got better towards the middle. I think he became comfortable. I will look for more of his work.
Brett Miller
an interesting study of the effects of money. The science has long been debunked, but sadly, human nature has not changed a bit.
totally thoughtfully provoking
