Not me on both counts. I first read Friends of Eddie Coyle years ago and it is one of the books that started me on reading mysteries. I loved the dialogue and how quickly it moved the book along -- easy to read for a college student with little time. I went on to read a few more of Higgins' books - Digger's Game - but then stopped for some reason.

As for Constantine I tried a couple and gave up -- too much of a political agenda.
