This is Lehane's debut. I have read most of his later stuff and by reading this you can see how he has grown especially the quality of his dialogue.
As a P.I. mystery this is basic fare with lots of cliche's and cliched characters ( alcoholic cop's, unrequited love) but its worth reading to see how an author starts out and mature's into the something special that Lehane has become.
