Book Description
A uniquely terrifying thriller that breaks all of the commandments...with a vengeance.
Not since Cain and Abel have there been two brothers like...The Hancock Boys.
What if two identical twin brothers decided to share a career, a family, a wife, a life? That is exactly what the Hancock boys decided to do. They took turns playing the role of the perfect husband, father, and bestselling novelist while the other lived out his wildest fantasies. It seemed the perfect setup. But what if one of them pushed the game too far? What if there was someone out there who knew their secret?
And, worst of all, what if one of the brothers suspected the other of teetering on the edge of sanity? The Hancock boys both know their game is coming to an end. And they have the perfect plan to protect their marriage, their skyrocketing career, and their very lives. The two men must become one. But which brother is willing to make the ultimate sacrifice? And with so much at stake, can either truly trust the other?
"Simpson has a terrific story to tell and plenty of talent to pull it off."
--Chicago Tribune

You will know the end,

This review is from: The Hancock Boys (Mass Market Paperback)
The story of this two brothers is amazing, nevertheless you will know the end of it at half book and that makes you lose some interest in the book, it has to many coincidences but the book will keep you reading all the time, it has to many characters and that makes the book a little hard to read, the point that I didn't like it and at the end I did, was their wife, since the start of the book I had a question: how two men can do exactly the same to a woman in bed? and the second question was: how a woman can't feel the difference between two men in bed? you will see the answer at the middle of the book. One of the answers I won't tell you which is amazing and the other is that either John and Will are really stupid or their wife is.

This review is from: The Hancock Boys (Mass Market Paperback)
A nice quick read that will hold your interest when you have time to kill. It took awhile to get used to all the character points-of-view but it all came together nicely in the end.

This review is from: The Hancock Boys (Mass Market Paperback)
This book was a really good book that I've read in a while. The plot is not difficult to follow and the book is really well written. This is the first book i've read by this author but I'm definitly going to read more books by him. You will not be disappointed when you read this book.
