Get Dennis Lehane's Mystic River. Boy, does he know how to write
Elmore Leonard
Enormously impressive: page-turning but thoughtful; moving in its sad inevitability... One of the finest novels I've read in ages
Peter Guttridge, Observer
A stylish, genuinely gripping whodunnit that will keep even the sharpest thriller fan asking questions until the very last page
Daily Mirror
One of the greats of crime writing
Guardian
Heart-scorching... penetrating... a powerhouse of a novel
The New York Times Book Review
Mystic River may be definitively brutal, but it is also satisfyingly thoughtful
Irish Times
Tightly plotted and explosively tense
Time Out
Lehane's best book by far. Like all his writing, it shimmers with great dialogue and a complex view of the world
