      Growing up in South Boston in the '70s and '80s, long before films like "Good Will Hunting" and "Mystic River" came along, Mark Wahlberg didn't see many authentic depictions of his hometown on the big or small screen. Sure, "Cheers" gave the city a f

      Lawrence Block knocks it out of the ballpark with every single story in this great book. I thought I had read all of his books but this was a new one to me and I was very pleased to discover it.

      There are 21 stories in this gem of a book and I could not pick one that was more enjoyable than any other. Some contain twists that will surprise you, some will make you laugh and some will make you think about the nature of people more than you might ever want to.

      Highly recommended whether you read it all in one sitting as I did or take it a story at a time.
