My first Dennis Lehane novel and certainly not my last.
Loved the subtle humour, the plot twists and the author's voice.
The third Kenzie and Gennaro book is less preachy than the first two, and keeps the focus primarily on plot and characters. But there are still goofily pure-evil villains, a few too many plot twists and an over-the-top climax. I'm never gonna fully get into this series, but I still have every intention of finishing it.
Easily the weakest Kenzie/Gennaro book, and I don't know why. On this, like every other, re-read, I've tried to a. convince myself I really like this one or b. put my finger on what seems wrong with this one, and I can't do either.
Drives me crazy.
Oh well, Gone Baby Gone is up next.
