Excellent Providence-set mystery. Reporter Mulligan gets caught up in a wild and twisty investigation, tyring to solve what it behind a series of arson fires in the Mount Hope neighborhood, and his lifelong connections and loyalties are strained as secrets are revealed. This was pretty fantastic, local flavor aside, and well deserves the national recognition it is getting.
This is a log of what books I've been reading and movies I've been watching. Comments are welcome!
One explanation seems necessary - the phrase "Life-Changing Fiction" is not in any way an endorsement of those books- in fact, I think those books are Awful, and want that to be clear. "Life-Changing Fiction", as a phrase, has been trademarked, absurdly, by the "Christian fiction" writer Karen Kingsbury, and that is Just Not Right. Aside from being ridiculous, it just sheds light on the hypocrisy of the writer. What would Jesus copyright?
