Publisher Description
Master of new noir Dennis Lehane magnificently evokes the dignity and savagery of working-class Boston in Darkness, Take My Hand, a terrifying tale of redemption.
In this gripping psychological thriller, Patrick Kenzie and Angela Gennaro’s latest client is a prominent Boston psychiatrist, running scared from a vengeful Irish mob. The private investigators know about cold-blooded retribution. Born and bred on the mean streets of blue-collar Dorchester, they’ve seen the darkness that lives in the hearts of the unfortunate.
But an evil for which even they are unprepared is about to strike, as secrets that have long lain dormant erupt, setting off a hunt for a serial killer that will stain everything — including the truth.
With razor-sharp dialogue and penetrating prose, Darkness, Take My Hand is another superior entry in his acclaimed private investigator series from the author of Mystic River; Gone, Baby, Gone; and Shutter Island.

Best one yet
Loved this book, couldn’t put it down
Great
5 Stars. Wow! That was really fantastic. It’s been at least ten years since I read the first and I have no idea what took me so long to get to the second Kenzie and Genero book. Lehane was masterful here. He created pure evil and really stressed the good guys more than I’ve seen in a book, maybe ever. In need to put this series in a much more frequent rotation.
So morbid.
Well written. Brilliantly plotted.
But so very morbid.
