Query: The Given Day

Dennis Lehane is a master storyteller even when he used serial detective as his genre and when he turned to pedophilia in Mystic River or fantasy in Shutter Island. In The Given Day he tackles the animosity that existed in the city, between members of the police department, and between the races.Since he appears to relish every word he writes, readers need to read carefully for hidden possibilities and any twists and turns in the plot. If someone wants a quick read, this book is not it as it requires close attention to characters and the wait for back story between some characters. He does an excellent job with his portrayal of Babe Ruth at the beginning in a racially tense scene.He has expanded so that he cannot be pigeon holed as mystery, fantasy. He is about capturing relationships and showing the twists and turns. He performs this task well and with realism
