Just finished THE GIVEN DAY by Dennis Lehane. I like Lehane,the author of MYSTIC RIVER amongst others and also a writer for The Wire.
This is a big beast of an historical epic,set in Boston after World War I and concerning the trials and tribulations of the Police Department. It is good,just a little too long!
Still worth reading for sure.
I would rather die on my feet than live on my knees!
