Good Gritty PI Stuff
Dennis Lehane is my new favorite mystery writer. His stories have an authentic street voice, a working class attitude and a weary yet wise worldview where justice is a complex concept full of gray areas.
Though Sacred is far from his best, it?s still a pretty good read. When a rich and almighty powerful tycoon hires Kenzie and Gennaro to find a missing daughter, the two working class P.I.s find themselves sucked into the immoral playgrounds and illusions of the rich?a place more dangerous than any of the mean streets of Boston.
