Nightwork by Joseph Hansen

5.0

In this book, we have yet another issue that seems to have been written today and not more than 35 years ago, and isn't it sad that the world has changed so little in all that time?

Street gang's violence, contamination by toxic waste, greedy corporations and indifference to the consequences of their acts is the background to the investigation that soon proves to be, of course, very dangerous.

And, while trying to untangle this mystery, Dave is trying to nurse Cecil who is still dealing with the consequences (physical and emotional) of his gunshot from the last book.

I liked a lot the interactions between the characters here, between Dave and Cecil (yes, I'm slowly warming to him) and between Dave and Amanda. We get to see more of Dave's compassion and kindness through them.

I'm still enjoying these books a whole lot :D
