I just read Toni Morrison's Mercy, her latest. It was a bit difficult for me to keep all the characters straight at first, but after that it was easier. A marvelous work, her best yet I think.

Gotta say, on the advice of a Freeper, I”m working on “Prayers of the Assassin,” and am finding it tough sledding. “The Monster of Florence” is pretty good, though nothing like the Preston/Child murder mysteries.
