Prayers for Rain by Dennis Lehane
5.0
This is my fourth Dennis Lehane book and the fifth in Kenzie and Gennaro series.
Characters ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Just like in the other Dennis Lehane books, great character work. I grew to like Bubba's character. I also liked the antagonist of the story. He reminded me of Brady Hartsfield from the Bill Hodges trilogy by Stephen King.
Writing ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Fantastic as always, though he could slow down in giving too many details about things.
Flow ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Smooth.
Ending ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Great ending with lots of surprises. Dennis Lehane never seems to run out of tricks up his sleeve.
Overall ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
A great thriller/mystery novel. It surpassed my expectations. I find this better than the preceding book, Gone, Baby, Gone.
