Review
"The author of The Friends of Eddie Coyle turns his penetrating eye to the world of media conglomerates and their legal and political servants. The plot centers on the machinations of an arch-manipulator who runs a thinly disguised Boston Globe for a faceless corporation. But the strengths here are in character, dialogue, and setting. Higgins knows this glossy world and its venal underside so well that the book transcends the limitations of the genre and stands as a genuine achievement. In its energy and authenticity, Impostors compares favorably with the more staid and respectable work of Louis Auchincloss."
