Vivid and intense, Hamiltons dark debut adeptly articulates the challenges and complexities of love and violence. Attorney Hyman Kazan is at his lowest point in life: with a struggling legal career and a failed relationship, Kazan is trying to find solace in alcohol. But when the body of a young man is found in downtown Vancouver, a link between the victim and Kazans girlfriends new lover, Judge Smith, soon comes to surface. As Kazan begins to look into Smiths role in the murder, sinister secrets come to surface, threatening to destroy whatever is left of Kazans life. The narrative shuffles between sudden viewpoint shifts and flashbacks in the past, and the story becomes deeply disturbing as Kazan begins to dig deeper into Smiths role in the case. Hamiltons characters are fully fleshed-out, relatable people who will stay with readers: Kazans portrayal as a tortured soul held fast by rage and trauma makes him an unforgettable hero. Underneath his rough veneer swirls pain and vulnerability. Kazans inner turmoil plays out against the background of the gloomy skies and mercurial weather of Vancouver and the unraveling of his relationship with Briar. Hamilton skillfully evokes emotions as he delves into love, companionship, relationship upheaval, pain, regret, justice, mortality, and morality. This is a thoughtful, if diffuse, examination of love and relationships; how we drown ourselves more in misery in order to avoid the pain of a heartbreak. Imbued with passion and high-intensity emotion of a couples volatile relationship, this deeply intimate, emotionally charged tale makes for a winner.Book specifications:Dimensions: 229 x 152Author: Steve HamiltonCover type: PaperbackPublishing Year: 2022Publishing Month: 7Pages: 230Language: EnglishPublisher: iUniverseWeight: 340 g
