Title: 1st mosley work i've read
Product review: and i'm hooked! i'm definitely going to look into his other books, although from reading the other reviewers comments, this novel is an anomaly rather than typical of his works. so i might be disapointed...the other reviewers did a great job of summarizing the plot of the book so i won't rehash. one idea that i kept in mind throughout the mystery (it is not a thriller, but the unknown identity and reasons behind why the man in the basement is there kept the pages turning quickly) is how crime and morals are so relative in society. Why is Charles is ostracized by his community while Bennett is rich and successful? and as the book delves deeper into the nature of the crimes of these two men, it really got me to ponder about soceity's value systme and the personal code of ethics that is encouraged. It brings up many other worhtwhile issues and was a thought-provoking, addictive read.
