A review by zade
A Walk Among the Tombstones by Lawrence Block

3.0

I enjoy the Matt Scudder books in general, so I'm not surprised to have liked this one. It's an interesting mystery, but also has many elements that are hard to stomach. If graphic violence against women will bother you, don't read this novel. As in most of Block's books, the human interactions of the characters are what make the book work and, in this case, provide an antidote to the horror of the crimes in question.
