Beware the Solitary Drinker
I admit, the title did not catch my interest, but the old adage of not judging a book by its cover or title, held true here. This involved a bartender named Brian McNulty who has a few personal problems. However, the one bothering him the most is the death of a friend, a beautiful seductive girl. With the help or force of her sister, Brian tries to find out why she was killed and by whom. All the suspects are his friends and all of them seem to have secrets that no one wants revealed. This book is definitely a quick-page turner as well as being very reflective about the parts of us that all of us want to keep hidden.
This first time author, Cornelius Lehane, is one author that I will look forward to reading again and again.
