IP Book Reviews: "Painless is a super-charged crime novel that action addicts will love."

Rebecca's Reads: "This book is recommended for fans of furious action and a look at crime and criminals from the inside. The reader is swept along on waves of action and violence. As one might expect in this setting, there is a lot of sex, violence and adult language. The plot twists like a sidewinder and the flashbacks help the reader piece together the puzzle of the various relationships"
