A fun and engrossing read that blends some of the noir of Chandler (think The Big Sleep) and the hard-nosed, streetwise, rough and tumble, blood-soaked sleuthing of Spillane's Mike Hammer. Michael Kelly is an ex-Chicago Homicide Detective railroaded off the force by a crooked Cook County DA and now working as a private investigator. The mystery here is solvable in some respects--and I was happy to be both correct in my major deduction while also having plenty of other twists thrown into the mix as the case wound to its inevitable conclusion. If you like the vintage detective novel, the city of Chicago, and the humor that accompanies a lifetime of Cubs fandom, you will enjoy this book!… (plus d'informations)

A strong 4. A family in Brighton, Boston on the fringe of society. Some try to escape the town but it drags them back. Except Kevin who returns after 25 years away having just won the Pulitzer Prise.
When his prosecutor girlfriend asks for his help in an old case he is tested about the meaning of family, the price of friendship and the cost of survival where one misstep can cost you everything.

Kevin has two sisters, one is in the drug supply but very low profile, the other one marries and moves away.
The one involved in drugs is just borne a killer. Anyone who gets in her way including her sister, her brother in law, her boyfriend, two dealers and her grandmother. It's not for the money, she can't spend it because she can't exist outside of Brighton.

As the elder generation of great American crime novelists gives up the ghost, or retires from the scene (any chance you have another Matt Scudder novel in you, Lawrence Block?), Michael Harvey gives aficionados of the form some hope. This is a first-rate, stone whodunit, destined, I would hope, to become a classic of the genre. Very highly recommended.

I really enjoy Michael Harvey's mysteries. Although this isn't a part of the Michael Kelly series, he makes an appearance.
