Awesome read. Great characters and help my interest.

The book was pretty good as long as its setting was Boston. The rest of the book was one long melodrama.

Interesting read but somewhat typical gangster story. Enjoyable!

A fast paced thrill ride that engulfs the reader with epically descriptive story telling and a plot full of twists and turns. Read it, you'll be glad you did.

Comes on fast and furious and you can't put it down as it burns in your hands.

Dennis Lehane is one of our greatest storytellers. I'm thankful that I've enjoyed his previous books so much that I jumped into this one. Can't say enough about it. Do yourself a favor and curl up with this one. I stayed up until 2 AM to finish it, which I never do. Looking forward to see what Ben Affleck does with the material. I'm confident it'll be a great movie and more than likely win some major awards. Please keep it up Mr. Lehane!

First Lehane novel I read. Enjoyed it. Will read more of his work.

Although this book took a little to get me hooked, once it did, I couldn't put it down! As usual, Dennis Lehane is an expert at giving you all the nitty gritty details that truly make a story complete! I was not disappointed at all. Get through the initial first few chapters and it begins to pick up at a rapid pace.

I've read all of Lehane's books and this is his best yet. I couldn't put it down. Can't wait for his next.

I seriously couldn't put this book down. It's a day later and I'm still thinking heavily about the characters. I loved everything about this book and (fingers crossed) it will make a great movie!
