I’m from the south, so I really appreciate the accurate atmospheric descriptions of the area.
This novel was written in a different style than I’ve become accustomed to by this prolific author. In this narrative, I found there was a lot more telling than showing which made the thrills fall a little flat. I also found that I was less engaged and a bit less interested in the fate of the characters than I normally am in a courtroom drama.
I did enjoy the historical references and the research involved In exposing the criminal underbelly of the coast and this made it a worthwhile read for me.
I’d like to thank NetGalley for an advanced copy of The Boys From Biloxi for my unbiased evaluation. 3.5 stars
