DANGEROUS TIMES is a contemporary noir crime-thriller with strong women characters, dark humor and the pull of the unpredictable. This book is not for the squeamish. It begins as a creepy slow burner that leads to betrayal, sex, violence, and murder.
Frank Moore's impish playfulness makes him an alluring antagonist — a diabolical criminal who has come up with an outrageous, malevolent plan. After a frustrating search he has finally found the key to its success. Frank has found his look-alike, a close-enough double: John Kirk.
John Kirk leads a troublesome life in the harbor city of San Pedro, common troubles that fall by the wayside when Frank Moore comes to town. John Kirk, hunted down and pegged for death without knowing why.

I really enjoyed this book. It unravels at a steady pace and as the tension intensifies so does the intricacies of the plot. As I went from one chapter to the next, I kept wondering how is this going to end? Frey has created a tense, enthralling thriller with elements of a harsh criminal underworld and yet there are moments of tenderness. With simple, clean descriptions, it's a story of 'everyday' people's fears, hatred and willingness to survive - no matter what. A highly recommended read.

"Dangerous Times" is a well-written crime-thriller. The plot is fast-paced and filled with surprise turns. The story line includes multiple characters with their own problems and circumstances, but Frey pulls them all in and makes them work in an excellent manner. I recommend this book to anyone who likes crime thrillers. You won't be disappointed.

I was a little skeptical when starting this book, but man was I wrong. It takes a few pages for the author to grab you, but when he does he doesn't let go until the last page. Do not miss this one.

For lovers of crime thrillers and suspense novels written in a solid, purposeful voice, "Dangerous Times" is a winner. It's dark and gritty, yet still touched by flashes of brilliance told in a unique voice. Once it grabs you, it doesn't let you go.

Phillip Frey proves with Dangerous Times that he can deliver a tightly written page-turner that will leave you waiting for the sequel. Indeed, the way in which this author completes this novel promises that there will be a second story to follow up on the characters Frey has created. I hope he doesn't wait too long to write it.

Dangerous Times is a crime-thriller that is full of twist and turns and unpredictable situations. The story has murder, sex, lies, and just an all-around dark and gritty story. Dangerous Times keeps you on your toes, guessing and wondering what is going to happen next.

Dangerous Times is the story of two men from different walks of life. Their intertwining lives mean danger for the both of them. This was a really good book, full of twists and turns. It was unpredictable, a detail I enjoy when reading. Overall, this was an enjoyable book.

This thriller caught my interest from the beginning, perhaps because it took me around San Pedro, California, which I remember fondly. It contained all the expected elements — goriness, sex, a bit of social exposure and more.

Would I recommend? Yes. Now for those romance lovers, this isn’t the book for you. Mystery, thriller, crime/punishment readers, this one is for you. Take a chance. I look forward to more from this author.
