A thoroughly modern political morality tale set in Boston
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
If contemporary American urban politics can be mundane and boring, it can also be the setting for compelling fiction, especially when Boston is the setting. In Boston as in Chicago, politics is a contact sport. Maynard Thomson has an excellent eye and ear for this sport, and "Breaking Faith", which involves cops, detectives, Irish pols, and an African-American preacher, reads true. Also included are some central-casting types (suburban liberals. urban firebrands) but Nason ("call me Nase") Nichols, the narrator/private eye, is the main man. It's a terrific read with a not-too-obvious ending that is revealed only in the last few pages.
