lorinlee 's review for:
The Twelve Lives of Samuel Hawley
by Hannah Tinti
This is a keeper, a literary tale of a father-daughter relationship. Samuel is a thief and the father of a young woman. Chapters weave back and forth between his past (revealing how he got various bullet wounds) and his life with his daughter. What happened to his wife? What does his daughter know of his background? Ultimately past and present meet up. It's a grabber of a story, beautifully plotted, nicely paced and character driven. How does the author know so much about guns and thieves? I'm going to have to get her first novel, The Good Thief.
