Hatchett's a gifted writer who knows how to set the scene without going overboard (I could SMELL that stench, could SEE that shop) and tell a story. Great characterization--Gray is witty and tough, a relate-able narrator you can root for. And I admit I'm biased for stories set in the South. A lot of richness comes through that makes you feel "right there." Great job, highly recommended.

If you like your thrillers to be taut then this is just for you. I have a penchant for story-line centered around an average Joe who gets caught up in tale where he is innocent but he becomes submerged in a web of intrigue that most of us would not survive. Well Jerry Hatchett has crafted a great story here that catches the reader's attention with a dark prologue and carries them along at roller coaster pace. Highly recommended.

I got this book for free through a promotion on Amazon and it's been sitting on my kindle for a while waiting on me to get to it and I'm glad that I eventually did.
I read the entire book in under 24 hours and it's a long time since I did that with a book, but this one was easy to read and drew me in from the beginning. Maybe the short chapters helped with making it seem easier to read through in no time at all, I don't know..well that or my insomnia.
The only real criticism of the book I suppose ...more

Very good read. Grabs you from the beginning in the pawn shop and doesn't let go. I read it in two days.(if not for work it would have been one)

Excellent, page-turning thriller.
Awesome action. Great characters. Hatchett is a very talented author. Pawnbroker has all of the appeal of a fast-paced James Patterson novel but with a better quality of writing. This story would make a great movie!
