Runner
You know those books that are wonderful, but that envy, the worm in the bud, makes you shy away from praising because you wish youd created that prose or those insights? Runner by Tracy Clark. She understands the streets, kids, the way a PI and a cop really work. Kudos. Sara Paretsky, New York Times bestselling author of the V.I. Warshawski series and cofounder of Sisters in Crime
