Good People

I really want to like Marcus Sakey novels, but I just cannot. The premise is sound and the writing is fine, but I just cannot sympathize with his characters or their situations. He reminds me very much of George Pellecanos and I do not like his books either. Everyone and everything is unpleasant and I just can't get into that vibe. I listened to this book in audio and the production was fine. It was natrrated by two people as the viewpoints shifted between the husband (or other male characters) and wife. This wasn't quite as jarring as DUNE's shift from cast to narrator, but it takes some getting used to.

I know there is an audience out there for this style of book, but it obviously isn't me.
