4.0

What a terrific start to a series (or strong standalone, if Johnson had never continued writing). It's a slow-boil story, with a more mature lead than the standard PI or cop series, and a considerable about of real-life weight behind the characters and setting.

Highly recommended, either in print it audiobook (I listened to it while puttering around house and yard, and narrator George Guidall makes for a good companion in such circumstances).
