Such Men Are Dangerous by Lawrence Block
Book Description A very dangerous man. That's Paul Kavanagh, an ex-Green Beret with nothing but time on his hands -- until he gets an offer to steal a shipment of tactical nuclear weapons form the U.S. government -- and finds himself a partner, George Dattner, who has the cold eyes of a trained killer. Each of these men alone is dangerous. But anyone who tries to stop them together is guaranteed not to come out of it alive! Reader Reviews 1 of 5 people found the following review helpful: Not his best, April 27, 2000 Reviewer: Aaron McHugh from San Jose My expectations were too high given Mr. Block's consistent quality of writing in every other work I've read. I thought this was a little to Clancy-esque a plotline (the writing was still character driven though), and the protagonist, an ex-Green Beret who's psyche is supposed to be interestingly off kilter, was maybe a bit too complex a character for Block to portray early in his writing career. Nevertheless, I'd recommend it for killing a few hours on a plane. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title
