Another Kenzie / Gennaro thriller:

I am completely in love with Dennis Lehane's writing, so I may be a tad biased... but I LOVE this book. It's just another piece in the Kenzie / Gennaro series, and it's right on par with the rest.

This series along with Mystic River has made Lehane my favorite author.

My favorite of the series:

This story starts with a father looking for his missing daughter and then hiring this relentless investigative duo to find her. From Boston to Florida and back, you are in for a crazy ride full of mind-blowing twists and shockers--evil, lies, and disturbing corruption--along the way. It will keep you turning pages and staying up all night to find out what happens next and of course, nothing is ever as it seems.
