Book Reviews of The Night Gardener

Book Review: New direction,same high standard
Summary: 5 Stars

I have just made a start into rereading GP's back catalogue and got through the Nick Stefanos trilogy when I got this. I kind of enjoyed Nick and the Quinn/Strange partnership but really got sucked into this one very quickly. Like Ian Rankin or James Lee Burke, Pelecanos draws you in and tells a fantastic story while making some valid social commentary.
This book would work for either the experienced GP reader or would make a great starting point.
Long story short - a great story well written.
