Good People Review

Based on the recommendation of the local NPR station, WBEZ, my wife recently gave me Marcus Sakey's Good People for a holiday gift.  I typically read business related non fiction so digging into a crime thriller was a welcome change of pace.  Good People is a great Chicago based crime fiction book that delivers suspense, great writing, wry cultural insights, and a great twists and turns in the plot.

I could not put the book down and tore through in within the second day of vacation.  If you live in the city of Chicago Good People  is particularly interesting.  Many of the scenes in the book took place blocks from my office and home.  It was fun to know many of the precise locations described in the book.
