At End Of Day takes far more effort to read than a traditional novel packed with action scenes, and/or tied together neatly through the perspective of a narrator. Chapters alternate with two mob informants reminiscing about their own careers and about the guys they're having to set on fire and maim to persuade them to pay their loans on time. These conversations ramble on and on, over and over. The heavy New England dialect is frustrating to interpret. Finally, these aimless conversations come together to reveal an alliance between the FBI and the mob--I guess this plot twist is supposed to surprise the reader? Poorly developed characters and the dialog technique employed here make this a difficult read.
