A drink before the war by Dennis Lehane
Book Number:RC 50609
2 sound cassettes
Kenzie and Gennaro series
Boston private investigators Patrick Kenzie and Angie Gennaro are hired by
two senators to investigate missing government files taken by their African
American cleaning lady. Only they soon discover that the stolen goods are
more racy than office work, and the cleaning lady turns up dead. Violence
and strong language. 1994
Written by the author of Mystic River, this is his first novel which
received the Shamus award. I'll tell you right from the start, not for the
squeamish or faint of heart. His writing is very graphic. This book is a
story that contains more stories, involving every level of society,
personality types and economic stages. I read this one in one day. I just
couldn't put it down. I give it a 5 out of 5.
Happy Reading,
Carla/TexasRed.
