Mystic River
Author: Dennis Lehane
Three boys’ friendship changed after an incident one day. Twenty-five years later, one of them is a detective, one is an ex-con who runs a local corner store, and the other is just trying to keep his marriage and life together. A horrible event happens that ends up bringing them all together again.
This book was like reading an episode of CSI and Law & Order, but you really get to know the characters first, then try to figure out what happened. I read it super fast because I just had to know. I usually don’t read murder mystery books, so I can’t compare it to others, but I did enjoy reading this one.
