Great surprise!

I usually keep great books in a special shelf.

I bought this Crime fiction novel by a hunch. I wanted to give a chance to unknown and young writers. J. C. Grangé from France was one and “Red-Blood Rivers” was a big disappointment, Irish writer Declan Hughes was the other and “The Wrong Kind of Blood” was not.

Very nice PI mystery. Irish Noir.

The book starts with a complex plot and ends with great twists. The kind of surprise you never imagine or see coming. Declan Hughes seems to be a very clever writer, and not only that, his prose makes me think that he is up to great things.

Like I said at the beginning of this review I’ll put “The Wrong Kind of Blood” besides the books of Dennis Lehane, John Connolly, James Lee Burke and Robert Wilson. He is not on the same level yet but definitely deserves to be on my great-books bookshelf.

Cheers

Cristian
