Lehane has become a fine craftsman, but you might not have
noticed this skill in his first novel, A DRINK BEFORE THE
WAR. I find it hard to believe he won and Edgar for best new
writer for that book. I could barely finish it, I thought it
was so unbelieveable and silly. He's redeemed himself with
SHUTTER ISLAND and MYSTIC RIVER.
