Product Description

Review

Starred Review. Lolita in reverse. . . . Welsh applies his unique artistic gifts to a more conventional story line and succeeds admirably.

5.0 out of 5 stars Redemption and forgiveness, Oct 31 2009

By	L. Ramsey - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)

This review is from: Crime (Paperback)

Crime is a story about forgiveness and redemption with a plot that reminds me very much of The Kite Runner by Khaled Hossein even though their settings are in no way alike. Both, however are plagued by injustices experienced in childhood that frame the reality for the main characters right into their adult lives. As a detective inspector in Edinburgh, Scotland Ray Lennox of Crime has just finished a case involving the rape of a child kidnapped as she was making the five-minute walk to her school. Unfortunately, her case location remains unknown until after her death. After assaulting the main suspect brought in for questioning, Ray is given leave from his job or a little R and R. His fianc�, Trudi, takes him to Miami where circumstances wont let him forget and he quickly gets embroiled in the life of Tianna, a ten-year victim of sexual abuse. The anger that has monopolized Rays existence will not be pacified until he can rid himself of the ghosts of past-injustices. Mr. Welsh makes us feel the Rays frustrations and so the fantastic relief that would come from a possible resolution. I cant recommend a book more highly.
