City of Dreams
Winslow’s realistic mobster noir plunges readers into Danny’s vulnerable struggle to escape the criminal life he never wanted. An enticing, viscerally piercing version of the classic clash between sin and morality, compassion and brutality, and how love and family can either grace a life or jeopardize it.

City on Fire
Listeners who enjoyed The Godfather or the GoodFellas film based on the book Wiseguy will find this work to be similar.
City on Fire
Echoing Homer’s epic Iliad, Winslow delivers a fast-paced, intense, and brooding story. It’s perfect for readers of William Boyle, James Lee Burke, and Dennis Lehane.

Broken
Fans of the author will eat up these neat, taut, action-packed stories, told in staccato sentences and one-line paragraphs. Newcomers to Winslow’s world will hope to see more of Lubesnick—or almost any of the characters still standing after the stories end.

The Force
Winslow's writing, with its torrents of profane, single-sentence paragraphs, is as potent as ever, but his story's trajectory is familiar, particularly for fans of the show The Shield. Despite those reservations, this propulsive novel should be eagerly welcomed by readers of Ken Bruen. [See Prepub Alert, 12/12/16.]

Satori
This is a straightforward adventure book: there's a good deal of killing and sex in it but little of the humor of the original. A so-so thriller that peters out toward the end. [See Prepub Alert, LJ 10/15/10.]
