This is the first book in a series featuring Boston Private Investigators Patrick Kenzie and Angela Gennaro; the film Gone Baby Gone is based on a later entry in the series. It's also the first book by Lehane I've ever read, and certainly won't be the last. First thing I noticed, then forgot to noti...
As a gang war looms on the horizon, private detectives Patrick Kenzie and Angela Gennara are hired to find a missing woman who stole some documents from a senator. What they find could ignite a race war and burn Boston to the ground...When I recently got caught up on [a:Robert Crais|8944|Robert Cra...
I didn't much care for this book. The main character, Patrick Kenzie, is an asshole, and it's not clear that his partner, Angela, is much better.

Wniosek: nadal nie znoszę Kenziego i Gennaro. Za to mam słabość do Bubby. W oryginale czyta się 3 razy lepiej niż tłumaczenie, które niby było poprawne, ale... to jak oglądanie The Wire z polskim lektorem:P
Perfectly serviceable hard-boiled crime fiction, with a nice sense of noir phrasing. Not so much a mystery as a slow burn through inevitable violence. But the writing was good, the characters engaging, the city bleak and realistic, and the book grapples with, but does not try to solve, issues around...
A noir touch, complete with nifty madcap dialogue and a dark sense of humor makes this a fun detective tale. It begins when two politicians come to PI Patrick Kenzie and employ him and partner Angela Gennaro to retrieve some documents purloined by a cleaning woman. What follows is a large scale gang...
