Fiction. "A good mystery is a dialogue with a reader, a city, a certain time in history, an exploration of a people's attitude towards humanity, socialmores, the downtrodden, the vulnerable. Set in San Francisco, Goins' debut novel exhibits author's control, talent and insight in the right mix. His canvas, concerns, his prose, lyrical attimes, penetrating, unsettling often, will make it hard for the reader to put the book down."—Moazzam Sheikh
