After his move to America is derailed by Ridge's illness, a sober Jack Taylor is pulled back into the investigation game when a religious psycho gives him (and only him) the clues necessary to prevent her murder of a child.
This may be my favorite Jack Taylor book yet. The plot is compelling and the pacing is almost thriller-like. There is also a revelation regarding an major event from one of the previous books. As usual, Bruen's sparse prose is full of humor so dry you'd miss it if you weren't paying attention. My only complaint is that despite a visit to his bookseller, this installment offered no new reading recommendations for me.
