Great great great read
Great great great read! This is Mr. Hunt's best book yet. Superb story; gripping you from the first paragraph ... you want to find out who did this and what was the motive. Well! Find out who did it you do, and that is not what makes this story so darn interesting. It is the motive behind the crime and what happened behind the scenes that makes this book hard to put down. Told in an unusually interesting method, there is more to this book than the crime story. The "Detective" and his much more seasoned partner, who have been thrown together for political reasons, struggle to find the strength in each other's person. The younger Jewish man and the older seasoned Irishman make an good pairing who don't see the crime eye-to-eye. An odd twist of an Irish girlfriend soften the younger detective as he struggles to stay true to his Jewish upbringing. Good job, Mr. Hunt. I look forward to your next story. I loved this one!
