MYSTIC RIVER by DENNIS LEHANE
|
SummaryWhen they were children, Sean Devine, Jimmy Marcus, and
Dave Boyle were friends. But then a strange car drove up
their street. One boy got in the car, two did not, and
something terrible happened -- something that ended their
friendship and changed all three boys forever. Twenty-five
years later, Sean is a homicide detective. Jimmy is an ex-
con. And Dave is trying to hold his marriage together and
keep his demons at bay-demons that urge him to do horrific
things. When Jimmy's daughter is found murdered, Sean is assigned
to the case. His investigation brings him into serious
conflict with Jimmy. And then there is Dave, who came home
covered n someone else's blood the night Jimmy's daughter
died. While Sean attempts to use the law to return peace
and order to the neighborhood, Jimmy finds his need for
vengeance pushing him ever closer to a moral abyss from
which he won't be able to return. A tense and unnerving psychological thriller, Mystic River
is also an epic novel of love, loyalty, faith, and family.
