If you're looking for a mystery with substance this is it.  I was impressive how eloquently he was able to show the pressures that a black sherif has in small town southern America. This was a police procedural which I really enjoyed.  This is not the norm for me so that speaks volumes about the story telling. The characters where so fleshed out and they felt like people you know. I also enjoyed the writing style.  The pacing was a bit off in the middle but other than that it was a great read.  A tough one but great.
