a re-read today. This one was better than remembered. Gonna read the others this Spring.

Lehane delivers a taut, chilling thriller full of nasty characters, a brooding hero and snappy sarcasm.

One of my all time favorite novels but the editing made this version a tough read. Quotation marks are used in more than just conversations. Can get confusing if you don’t already know the story well. Rush job on the proof read

Good story, but no real answers as to why the two biggest culprits did what they did. Story would’ve been much better with answers given at the end!

I love Lehane's tight plotting, interesting characters so much, I'll overlook the superman jumps of intuition that seem to resolve his Kenzie/Gennaro stories... This is the cruelest of the five I've read, with the highest stakes. My main gripe about the ebook is that the editors seem to have allowed a bug that replaces --ence word ending with Renee. RefeRenee for example. I've noticed it three times in 2/3 of the book; ought to have been noticed/fixed prior to release.

Loved, loved loved this book! Read this on recommendation from my son, who is an avid reader of all types of literature. I couldn't put it down. As soon as I was done I downloaded another by Lehane. I am hooked
