Moonlight
Mile by Dennis Lehane
After his remarkable success with Mystic River,
Shutter
Island, and The
Given Day, the celebrated author whom the Washington Post
praises as, “one of those brave new detective stylists who is not afraid of
fooling around with the genre’s traditions,” returns to his roots—and the
result, as always, is electrifying.
The
Skinny
• Signed first edition hardcover of Moonlight Mile by Dennis
Lehane.
• Moonlight Mile is the first Patrick Kenzie and Angela Gennaro
suspense novel in more than a decade from the acclaimed, New York Times
bestselling master of the new noir, Dennis Lehane.
• An explosive tale of vengeance and redemption—the brilliant sequel to Gone,
Baby, Gone — Moonlight Mile returns Lehane’s unforgettable and deeply
human detective duo to the mean streets of blue collar Boston to investigate
the second disappearance of Amanda McCready, now sixteen years old.
Reviews
“[Lehane has] emerged from the whodunit ghetto as a broader and more
substantial talent...When it comes to keeping readers exactly where he wants
them, Mr. Lehane offers a bravura demonstration of how it’s done.” — New
York Times
Speaking of..
...The Plot
Amanda McCready was four years old when she vanished from a Boston neighborhood twelve years ago. Desperate pleas for help from the child's aunt led investigators Kenzie and Gennaro to take on the case. The pair risked everything to find the young girl—only to orchestrate her return to a neglectful mother and a broken home.
Now Amanda is sixteen—and gone again. A stellar student, brilliant but aloof, she seemed destined to escape her upbringing. Yet Amanda's aunt is once more knocking on Patrick Kenzie's door, fearing the worst for the little girl who has blossomed into a striking, clever young woman—a woman who hasn't been seen in weeks.
Haunted by their consciences, Kenzie and Gennaro revisit the case that troubled them the most. Their search leads them into a world of identity thieves, methamphetamine dealers, a mentally unstable crime boss and his equally demented wife, a priceless, thousand-year-old cross, and a happily homicidal Russian gangster. It's a world in which motives and allegiances constantly shift and mistakes are fatal.
In their desperate fight to confront the past and find Amanda McCready, Kenzie and Gennaro will be forced to question if it's possible to do the wrong thing and still be right or to do the right thing and still be wrong. As they face an evil that goes beyond broken families and broken dreams, they discover that the sins of yesterday don't always stay buried and the crimes of today could end their lives.
