Very interesting concept, I would have enjoyed more indepth day to day on how the brothers accomplished this one life they led. I wanted more on what was going on in will's head. The ending is a bit predictable, but it is a good read. Great to take on a vacation.

This is a powerful book, filled with intriguing stories, characters, dynamic situations and, with all the thrill and psychological terror that could be mustered, "The Hancock Boys" really delivers. Who is the smart twin? The mad twin? Who's the killer? Who's the husband? Does the wife know? Who will exact revenge? How does fate intervene? All of these questions are answered. All of the stories merge. And the ultimate lesson is learned: is brotherly love all that powerful, or is man his own universe, yearning for acceptance, for power, for identity? The book moves quickly, the characters develop even quicker. An easy read, but a thrilling one
