Summary: Complex Crime Thriller
Review: Concept of Justice is such a realistic picture of the criminal mind that I couldn't help feeling a little bit relieved that I don't live next door to Henry Custer. Anyone who can plan burglaries, murders, kidnappings and counterfeiting schemes with such flawless attention to detail should be watched very carefully! The book's main character, Martin Lovett, makes some very bad choices in his life and isn't always a nice guy, but he remains oddly likable throughout the story and I found myself rooting for him despite his flaws. Maybe it's because of his devotion to his wife Cindy, a fine woman who knows nothing of his criminal activities; or it could be because of the dirt-poor family Marty came from and all the hardships he had to overcome growing up. Possibly it's just that the lowlifes he gets mixed up with make him look like an Eagle Scout in comparison, but I know I couldn't help feeling that Marty was really a decent guy and wanted a happy ending for him. Concept of Justice unfolds one subtle layer at a time and culminates in a resolution that is both surprising and completely credible, thanks to some tenacious law enforcement officers who add even more human flavor to this intriguing story. The author's extensive knowledge and expertise in a variety of professions is impressive and make for a book that has no loopholes or slips in logic that annoy me to no end. This crime thriller will keep you up late turning pages to find out how the deliciously complex plot turns out, but you definitely won't regret missing a little sleep for this book.

Summary: Watch out for your past!
Review: Henry Custer has crafted an intriguing and thoroughly engaging thriller. His hero (if you can call him that), Marty Lovett, always dreamed of getting his hands on the big prize. It's the one thing that has driven him since his boyhood during the economically-challenged 1940's. Years later, his big chance finally comes, but things go tragically awry, resulting in an unsolved kidnap/murder that floats to the surface 30 years later. This is a riveting and exciting morality tale that teaches an important lesson: be careful what you do and who you do it to, because you never know when it may come back to haunt you.

Summary: A Book You Can't Put Down
Review: Henry Custer is clearly an author who has perfected his writing craft. From the start you're able to form a clear picture of his protagonist and the protagonist's wife. His use of description builds up suspense and keeps the reader on edge, and what's more important makes the reader want to find out what's going to happen next. Who is the intruder? Henry lets you know up front that the man he shot in self-defense is no ordinary burglar. Don't pick up this book unless you have a block of time to devote to it - you won't be able to lay it down.

Summary: Feeling sorry for the badguy
Review: It's not often that I feel sorry for a criminal. The reader is with the main character, Martin, as he commits a surprising act at the beginning of the novel and then later as he plans another crime with cold calculation without bothering to imagine the inevitable consequences. But Henry Custer leads the reader into an unexpected emotion, sympathy, as Martin's relationship with his wife is revealed and other, nastier characters emerge.

Summary: Hard to put down
Review: This book grabbed my attention quickly and by the time I'd read about 30 pages, I couldn't put it down. The plot was well thought out and believable, and it kept me guessing right up to the last page, and that's rare for me. The characters were real people and I enjoyed meeting them, although most of them I didn't like at all. I look forward to reading more books by Henry Custer.

Summary: A LITERARY DILEMMA
Review: When you have in hand a novel that is both deeply compelling and darkly disturbing, what are you going to do? On the one hand, you can't put 'Concept of Justice' down. Henry Custer has command of his craft. He's going to make you keep turning pages whether you want to or not. On the other hand, the subject is stark, real, and, in that sense, disturbing. It is not necessarily a fun read. But it is a good read ~ a damn good read! And for the latter reason, alone, I urge you to beg, borrow or... or better yet buy your own copy of 'Concept of Justice.' You'll want to read it more than once anyway!
