Really getting into Dennis Lehane this year (ha), read Shutter Island and midway through Mystic River. I knew the Shutter Island ending, but still a great read and Mystic River has me firmly engrossed so far.
Never read the book, but I thought the film was great, both in fact.
Smashed through Chris Hammer’s Tilt last night and was impressed.
As much as I liked those two, the Kenzie-Gennaro books were my favourite of his. Kind of pulpy but written well enough to keep me interested.
