This book deflates the stress behind those unwanted creditor phone calls and letters with straightforward explanations about debt relief. Told from the perspective of someone who has been there, and as a professional attorney, the author provides first-hand experience in getting beyond credit card trauma. Now I know that I am not alone and understand the options available to me.

I have read a number of books regarding this subject, and they usually are a just a rehash of the same old advise. However, this book is different. The author is not afraid to tell you how he overcame his own failures and miscalculations. (How many authors would admit that their wife openly proclaims that she is not attracted to good looking guys?) Aside from adding a little levity to an otherwise catastrophic situation, Landry gives concise advise to someone who wants an insight into the minds of the credit card collectors. Further, he provides hope that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. His method in Chapter 7 for negotiating a rock bottom settlement with the collectors is worth the price of the book many times over.
