Prayers for Rain (Kenzie & Gennaro, #5)Prayers for Rain by Dennis Lehane
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I loved Mystic River and Shutter Island, but this was my first Kenzie & Gennaro. I don’t think coming in at book 5 was an issue. Lehane is a master at revealing just enough backstory so the new reader gets it and the old reader isn’t bored. But wow. This was Violent with a capital V—a guy’s tongue gets caught off, a dog dies—that’s just not my thing. So despite Lehane’s talent for spinning a story, this one is at best a 3 for me.
