review 1: This is a very good mystery. The places mentioned are geograpyically accuratate and most places are real or very close to it and I did';t google every detail of every location. Hurricane Sandy brought down the Willogh Tree mentioned in the Garden on Avenue B. I loved the story. It had a good ending and was well written book with very short chapter that helps keeps the reader engaged without making the story dull or borring with far to many details. It kkeps you reading and to finish the book in a short period of time.
review 2: Set in a neighborhood I visit regularly, this book made me want to create a walking tour based on the story. Detective Darlene O'Hara gets a tip about a body buried in a community garden, but it's not the body she expects, and the 9-ye... morear-old boy she does find is shrouded in mystery. Dar is an alcoholic and was an unwed teen mother, and both circumstances drive her reactions to what she discovers about the boy. Tapping into a criminal subculture was pretty fascinating, and De Jonge kept a surprise or two up his sleeve. Fast, fun read. less
