The Pequod Review:

Kill the Boss Goodbye is one of Peter Rabe’s best books, a tense psychological thriller about a mentally disturbed bookie (Tom Fell) who is struggling to hold onto his territory. Fell is recovering in a sanitarium when he learns that one of his close associates is plotting to overthrow him, and he is forced to leave the facility much sooner then his doctors recommend. Rabe’s story is simple and tight, and builds to devastating moments of tension as Fell fights for control of his business and himself.
