If you saw the movies "Mystic River" or "The Departed," then you have a pretty good idea of what you are in for in reading books by Dennis Lehane. He wrote the novel "Mystic River" was based on, and no one captures oston and environs quite the way he does. He is often compared favorably to Robert B. Parker. Meet the private detective team of Patrick Kenzie and Angela Gennaro as they work to solve a murder amidst the blue-collar neighborhoods of Boston, Dorchester, Back Bay, and Southie, all the while having to wend their way around and/or through powerful politicos in the town that invented Ward Politics!
