Live by Night by Dennis Lehane
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

One of the best starts of a book!! Great story by a master, love the time period and the place, late 1920 early 1930, in Boston and Tampa Florida. Joe Coughlin falls for the girl Emma Gould, he gets all goofy, goes to jail, he thinks she dies, he hooks up with God Father, goes to Tampa falls in love, starts a family, he is the boss in Tampa making 11m a year. Old enemy surfaces with the God Father to whack him, he survives, end up in Cuba living the good life, goes back to Florida with the wife for award, crazy dad of Loretta kills his wife in shoot out.

The Prisoner of Heaven by Carlos Ruiz Zafón
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

OK, this one was much better than #2 but not as good as #1, this story fills in most of the back story with Fermin, and oh boy does it tell a story, and the big kicker is what happens to Daniels mom, she is killed by David Martins jailer. There comes a storm brewing.
