'A Drink Before the War' by Dennis Lehane

The good

  • Kenzie and Gennaro are fun characters. Their roles as private detectives work well for this story.

  • Interesting setting (Boston) and themes (racism, corruption, crime).

  • Some fun action and detective work, with decent dialog.

The not so good

  • Some of the action jumps a little too much from the private detective genre to the action movie genre.

Rating: 4 stars
