A review by amysbrittain
Lush Life by Richard Price

2.0

I was really eagerly looking forward to reading this, what with my obsession with the Wire and Richard Price's involvement in that series. Plus this book is set in NYC, which can go a long way. But lordy, was this story slow. Somewhat pathetic characters. Plus it was a situation in which *the reader* knows whodunit from the start, and you get to watch the criminal cross paths with the cops who should catch him over and over and over again. But even that wasn't very exciting. Eh.
