A short summary of The Subtle Art of Brutality:
A private "dick" (sorry, couldn't help it, you'll understand when you read the book) discovers the "burning" desires of a step-in father.
My favorite Ryan Sayles quote from the book:
"Crying and consonants, when that’s all you speak, are not good storytellers."
Questions to ponder while reading the book:
What makes a good cop?
What makes a family?
My thoughts about The Subtle Art of Brutality:
A great piece of modern noir.
SOOO many clichés! I loved it!
Richard Dean Buckner is one of the biggest pigs ever and it wouldn't be a good story if he wasn't one.
