Dennis LeHane is my favorite author and this book is very well written and a great read. Kenzie investigates the "suicide" of a former client who was perky and full of life when he knew her six months ago. He finds a sadistic stalker is involved.

Great book. Dennis Lehane also wrote Mystic River. This is his fifth book in the Patrick Kenzie/Angela Gennaro detective series. Good characters, set in Boston and surrounding areas.

A good mystery with strange plot twists. Interesting characters. Overall, a good read, but not one of Lehane's best.

This is great series. Not lighthearted but a good realistic view of the dark side of crime and crime-solving. I want more of this series!!

Lehane writes abnormal psychology books--entertaining abnormal psychology books! I enjoy them because I have lived theyah(the area he writes about)-or there in NON Bostonian English. And I've met a few of his characters in the flesh. Maybe not so over the top? I've met some that were even crazier if possible. His books are just fookin' great! Remember Scott Pearse is not a local character! ps. My husband knew a Scott Pearse but he wasn't like Lehane's nasty fellow! Thanks and keep reading!
