Road to Perdition - Max Allan Collins & Richard Piers Rayner

I've known and liked the filmbsince it came along which surprised me as I don't really have a lot of time for Tom Hanks movies.  The book had eluded me though until I found it in a local charity shop the other day.

It's a different beast to the film, less of a road movie vibe, although that's in there, and also an little bit more real, although I certainly am discounting his escape from Capone's office from that statement.

An enjoyable short of tale even though this whole gangster thing isn't a favourite.  It's coherent and complete and satisfying. What more do you want from a Sunday afternoon read.
