Why read it?

1 author picked When the Sacred Ginmill Closes as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This book is one of a series of Mathew Scudder stories by Block. I enjoy his books because his main character is as flawed as we are. Matt is a hard-drinking former cop who goes about helping friends out of their troubles. And his friends are in a lot of trouble. Action and close calls, as well as humor, abound in this well-crafted story.

From Rick's list on mystery, humor, and revenge.
