Dennis Lehane on his new book – Moonlight Mile
Posted by Emily Rowland in Bonus Material, Little,Brown
Dennis Lehane is the international bestselling author of Gone, Baby, Gone, Shutter Island and Mystic River, and we're very proud to be publishing his newest Patrick & Angie thriller, Moonlight Mile, this February.
In the video below from www.dennislehanebooks.com, Lehane discusses his latest novel from his hometown of Boston.
Sixteen-year-old Amanda McCready has disappeared. Her anxious aunt contacts Patrick Kenzie to investigate. It is not the first time she has gone missing, as Patrick well knows – he was the investigator who worked on her case when she was kidnapped before, as a four-year-old.
But this is not a simple case of a runaway girl. In fact, nothing in Amanda’s life has been simple: brought up by the world’s worst mother, neglected throughout her childhood, she has nonetheless blossomed into a formidably intelligent young woman. A young woman so bright that she can seemingly out-think and out-manoeuvre anyone…
For Patrick, the case leads him down Boston’s darkest, most dangerous streets – and into a world of shocking secrets that will threaten not only Amanda’s life, but also his own and that of his partner Angie Gennaro.
- Moonlight Mile is available February 2011.
