Moonlight Mile (Kenzie and Gennaro)
Amazon Best Books of the Month, November 2010:  It’s tough going for a good man in a messed-up world, particularly in Dennis Lehane's Boston.  Patrick Kenzie knows he did the right thing twelve years ago (during the events inGone, Baby, Gone) when he located missing 4-year-old Amanda McCready and returned her to her neglectful mother, even though she would’ve been better off with her kidnappers.  That doesn’t mean he’s had an easy time living with his decision.  InMoonlight Mile, Patrick is still scraping by as a freelance PI, but now he’s married to his former partner Angie Gennaro and with a daughter of his own.  When Patrick learns that once again Amanda McCready’s gone missing, his conscience gets the better of him and he's soon on the trail of the enigmatic 16-year-old, only to discover that the moral complexity of his work has not lessened with time.  And neither has Lehane's talent as a top-notch crime writer.  Much like a cup of Dunkin' Donuts coffee, Lehane never fails to satisfy and the latest Patrick and Angie story is no less addictive.--Shane Hansanuwat
