""There are threads in our lives. You pull one, and everything else gets affected."" When they were children, Sean Devine, Jimmy Marcus, and Dave Boyle were friends. But then a strange car pulled tip to their street. One boy got into the car, two did not, and something terrible happened something that ended their friendship and changed all three boys forever.Twenty-five years later, Sean Devine is a homicide detective. Jimmy Marcus is an ex-con who owns a corner store. And Dave Boyle is trying to hold his marriage together and keep his demons at bay demons that urge him to do terrible things.When Jimmy Marcus's daughter is found murdered, Sean Devine is assigned to the case. His personal life unraveling, he must go back into a world he thought he'd left behind to confront not only the violence, of the present but the nightmares of his past. His investigation brings him into conflict with Jimmy Marcus, who finds that his old criminal impulses tempt him to solve the crime with brutal justice. And then there is Dave Boyle, who came home the night Jimmy's daughter died covered with someone else's blood.While Sean Devine attempts to use the law to return peace and order to the neighborhood, Jimmy Marcus finds his need for vengeance pushing him ever closer to a moral abyss from which lie wont be able to return, and Dave's wife, Celeste, sleeps at night with a man she fears may very well be a monster. a monster who fathered her child and hides his true nature from everyone, possibly even himself.A tense and unnerving psychological thriller, "Mystic River" is also an epic novel of love and loyalty, faith and family, in which people irrevocably marked by the past find themselves on a collision course with the darkest truths of their own hidden selves.

读后感

琴晚熬夜终于睇完勒、这也太厚了吧、 故事既一开始就是悲剧、两个变态娈童癖让大卫始终被男孩缠身、 引发长大后一场更大既悲剧、 秘密是毒药、这是真的、若大卫能没有秘密、那悲剧就不会发生、 神秘河、埋藏着许多、  

始终觉得勒翰的非系列作品才是最能代表他的黑暗风格的，这本神秘河至始至终写得很克制，没有私探系列的火爆场面书中人物面临的道德困境却依然压得人喘不过气来，派崔克安琪故事中多多少少还能体会到一点行侠仗义的快感，在神秘河中却早已不见踪影，有的只是在堕落贫困封闭社区...  

特别想知道书里故事发生的背景白金汉平顶区和尖顶区是否真实存在，在书里面有关于此区域的大量描写，包括了历史与现状，一草一木皆历历在目。以至让我觉得如果这地方不是真实存在那作者也太会编了。 刚才在维基百科的“Boston in fiction”词条下面查到了这个： Mystic River,...
