Praise for TREACHEROUS: GRIFTERS, RUFFIANS AND KILLERS …

“[These] tales feature Phillips unfaltering ear for contemporary urban dialogue and patois, relentless pacing that grabs you from the opening sentence — oh, and plenty of sex and violence, too … ” — Alan Cranis, bookgasm.com

“Most of the 21 highly entertaining selections in this new collection also spotlight the hip urban scene Phillips has made his own.” — Publishers Weekly
