"Darkness, Take My Hand"

Dennis Lehane's second novel in the Patrick Kenzie and Angela Gennaro series is "Darkness, Take My Hand." Kenzie and Gennaro are recovering from physical and emotional wounds when they are asked to help out a psychiatrist whose college age son's life has been threatened. They are recommended to her by a mutual friend who teaches criminology at the university her son attends. What appears to be a straightforward case is anything but. Before the case reaches its surprising conclusion they risk losing those near and dear to them as well as their own lives. Lehane has created another gripping novel that kept me reading late into the night -- again!

I'm off to the library to look for the third book in this series, "Sacred."
