Moonlight Mile was sort of a filler read for me I had picked it up at a library sale a while back and needed a book to zip through while I waited for my reserved e book to arrive from the public library Never mind that the only other story in Dennis Lehane s Kenzie Gennaro series that I had read was the first one A Drink Before the War But never mind I could catch up What I found out was that everybody reading this book is catching up even if they ve read the entire series because years have passed Angie and Patrick are now married with a four year old daughter Yup Life goes on In this one however it s sort of like deja vu all over again Sort of In Gone Baby Gone PIs Kenzie and Gennaro track down a missing 4 year old girl and return her to her messed up mother Now than a dozen years later Amanda McCready is missing again Angie is a full time mom but when she talks Patrick into taking the case she puts on her PI hat one time Complicating things for K G is the fact that Angie is in school and Patrick is being put off in his attempts to find permanent employment Still he relents when Angie pushes him to search for AmandaIt was okay reading this novel out of seuence I easily caught on to the characters Through their banter and their thoughts their personalities came through fairly well Patrick still agonizes over his decision to return Amanda to her mother We learn that Amanda has than compensated for that by becoming a too perfect student a young woman whom many look up to but not someone that anyone feels a real connection to I had mixed feelings about this girl I found myself wanting her to succeed but I wondered if she was capable of any deep emotions With the search for Amanda Patrick encounters much much than he bargained for I had visions of someone winding up in a grave and it could very well wind up being our hero or someone near and dear to him These are some very bad dudesThe interactions between Patrick and Amanda are sometimes raw sometimes entertaining but they always felt genuine and real I liked little Gabby Bubba the strong man is a gentle giant around the child but he is like the Incredible Hulk when it comes to the bad guys The plot went places I had no idea it would go And then surprise It twisted I think that gained another 12 star from me The dark place got a bit brighter Maybe it was all a bit too neat and tidy but in a book so grim and nasty I think it was an apt ending4 stars

Read & Download Moonlight Mile Free download µ PDF, DOC, TXT or eBook æ Dennis Lehane Dennis Lehane æ 4 Read & Download “Lehane has emerged from the whodunit ghetto as a broader and substantial talentWhen it comes to keeping readers exactly where he wants them Mr Lehane offers a bravura demonstration of how it’s done” New York TimesMoonlight Mile is the first Patrick Kenzie and Angela Gennaro suspense novel in than a decade from the acclaimed. If Dennis Lehane would have ripped off Charles Dickens and started this novel with It was the best of times it was the worst of times it would have been fittingIt s been eleven years since Lehane seemingly left his detective series starring Patrick Kenzie and Angie Gennaro behind to do stand alone novels and work on HBO s The Wire The last decade has been both good and bad to the couple The economic collapse has hit them hard and Patrick has been forced to do free lance work for a large investigation firm that has him doing the bidding of various rich asshats But if their professional lives aren t great at least things are going well on the domestic front except for worrying about how they ll pay the billsIn the midst of their economic crisis an old case comes back to haunt them In Gone Baby Gone Patrick and Angie went looking for missing four year old Amanda and by the end of it they faced some of the toughest decisions of their lives Now they re going to have to deal with the conseuences of those choicesThat s all the summary I m going to give and I d caution anyone interested in this book to not read any kind of plot synopsis of this unless you ve read Gone Baby Gone or seen the movie Even the book flap for Moonlight Mile gives away a big piece of that ending You have been warnedIt felt incredibly good to be reading a new Patrick and Angie story and Lehane used some of the work he s done since to build a richer and deeper story for the pair The influence of his time on The Wire shows in that one of the biggest villains in this book is a depressed economy Lehane makes some poignant points about financial desperation and how it impacts everyone in a variety of waysThis backdrop also fits an aging and moodier Patrick Twenty years as a detective have taken their toll and he s increasingly disgusted with all the large and small ways that people can screw each other over This reads as a swan song for Patrick and Angie and it s pretty damn good Not perfect I d have liked Angie in the story but there are reasons she doesn t get of the action this time If this is the final book then Lehane wrote a tender and touching farewell to Patrick and Angie that gives a satisfying ending to their seriesOh and just in case you re worried that it s all social commentary and brooding about regrets Bubba is still around And he still gets all the best lines like I ll shoot you just for being short

Lehane that guy can writeI m climbing on to the Dennis Lehane bandwagon really late but I am fully on board Even though Moonlight Mile wasn t ragingly exciting it s so well crafted I couldn t put down this story of a Boston area private detective who gets into new trouble because of an old case This PI s career is coming to an end but he doesn t know it yet Russians wunderkind and drug freaks all get the poor aging family man deeper into the shit than he realizes he s about to fall intoJust like me I didn t know I was getting into a series and that it was the last book It wasn t a problem I could tell these were people with a past but I was never overwhelmed by my ignorance This is the second jump into the middle of a Lehane series I ve done and in both cases the author does a fine job of giving enough detail to keep the reader abreast of the haps In other words the books are self containedI could see others giving this perhaps only 3 stars It does drag with the chit chat here and there I don t know perhaps I ve given this an extra star because it artificially kept my interest at times due to the setting being New England based which is where I grew up Name place dropping happens often in Moonlight Mile and that didn t bother me none
