by Mark SladePublish: Oct 25, 2019Crime Fiction Book Overview
London’s as rough and tumble as they come. But it doesn’t come easy for this rowdy wise guy. Not at all. In this collection of short stories, including the eponymous ‘Mean Business’, London blasts and belts his way through a motley mix of backwoods pushers, Uzi-toting adolescents, self-proclaimedmessiahs, pedophiles, pornographers, and a traveling family of obese assassins who deal death from the back of their minivan. There are backstabs and double crosses at every turn. A gallery of quirky co-stars flesh out London’s adventures. Elder mobster, Leon ‘Pop’ Brown, plays as London’s father figure while Cuban crime boss, Peter Choaladi, delivers London’s marching orders.
