À propos de cet audio
As richly complex and brutal as the terrain it depicts, here is the mesmerizing, darkly original novel that heralded the arrival of Dennis Lehane, the master of the new noir—and introduced Patrick Kenzie and Angela Gennaro, his smart and tough private investigators weaned on the blue-collar streets of Dorchester.
A cabal of powerful Boston politicians is willing to pay Kenzie and Gennaro big money for a seemingly small job: to find a missing cleaning woman who stole some secret documents. As Kenzie and Gennaro learn, however, this crime is no ordinary theft. It's about justice, about right and wrong. But in Boston, finding the truth isn't just a dirty business . . . it's deadly.
But still . . . I was so uncomfortable at the frequent use of the “n” word. And that serious child SA was minimized with the language of the day. And that a 16 year old (a child!) was basically told to get over his trauma anger (racial and SA) and come up with a solution. Absolutely no recognition of PTSD or generational trauma.
I don’t know? I thought we were wiser than that in the 1990s.
And the gun violence! Teenagers who can’t even buy beer are carrying guns? Is that really the was it is in the States?
Ugh.
I was so disappointed because I like some of the author’s other books, but this left me uncomfortable and feeling I never want to travel to the States.
