Bruen, Ken - THE HACKMAN BLUES

[LJ Roberts]

THE HACKMAN BLUES – Okay

Bruen, Ken – 2^nd book

Brady is a gay, bipolar, tough guy, criminal-detective ex-con. He is asked to find a white girl in Brixton, which sounds simple, but causes all kinds of complications.

I am a huge fan of Bruen’s more recent works (The Guards, The Killing of the Tinkers, The Magdalen Murders), but you can really tell this is his 2^nd book and he hasn’t found his voice as yet.
