It's definitely best to read this series in order, as the first two books, "Sinner's Gin" and then "Whiskey and Wry",  present most of the characters who appear in this volume, and they are all brilliant.  I love the main character, Forest, who we meet here.  He is a man who has overcome a difficult past but still maintained a very shy and gentle nature.  He is well-matched with the burly and protective Connor, a member of a police SWAT team.  The background story is fast-moving with a lot of explosive action and drama as mysterious forces seem set to destroy Forest and everything he has found to love.  I love the way Rhys Ford's characters come from the real world, not the silver-spoon reality so often found in other books.  I do believe this is a perfect book, for me, anyway.  :)  I have re-read this book about five times now already...This Is Spinal Tap [HD]  It's referenced obscurely...  (If I had any tiny little criticism at all of this book it's the obscure references.  I mean, I get any phenomenoly obscure literature references, (big fan of Xenophon and Zola) but movies, not so much...  (I did get the Monty Python ones.)The whole re-design of the coffee shop, sixties style, inspired me and I am going to make some curtains out of ribbon in the kitchen for a gypsy look.  Books give me good ideas...Plastic BeachThis cd goes well with this book.
