“I recently heard Dennis Lehane read from his forthcoming gangster novel Live By Night, and I started jonesing for his prose so bad that I bought another copy of Gone Baby Gone, which I already own, just so I could reread it on the plane home. Like all of Lehane’s work, Gone Baby Gone, which is about the abduction of a neglected four-year-old, weaves history and statistics into a tight, suspenseful plot. The thing I love most about Lehane’s detective novels is the way narrator Patrick Kenzie’s wiseguy sense of humor is matched by his social conscience.”
