--Oh please do read DURANGO -- it's one of my favorites of
his. Thomas always had a knack for portraying corrupt small
towns and this is certainly no different, but even more
delicious. Just the idea that a town could make money by
harboring white collar criminals is great, but of course,
Thomas adds all sorts of twists and it's all the more
enjoyable for them.
