5.0 out of 5 stars Right Exit to Brooklyn, October 16, 2007

By

This review is from: Disturbed Earth: An Artie Cohen Mystery (Artie Cohen Mysteries) (Paperback)

I'm from Brooklyn--the old Brooklyn of the Brooklyn Dodgers when Gil Hodges and Jackie Robinson lived just down the street. Those days are gone and I, like many other gently-maturing Brooklynites can wax nostalgic about them; but if you want to visit today's Brooklyn from the comfort of your arm chair, let Reggie Nadelson escort you. No one in recent decades does as good a job as she of capturing the atmosphere of how Brooklyn has churned, as it always has, into new cultural configurations under the influence of waves of Russian immigrants. With her you will experience their street life, foods, entrepreneurship, their ambition, audatity, and yes their crime. This latter is Nadelson's special territory and no one is better at taking you into that world than her Artie Cohen. A Russian transplant himself, with a foot planted firmly in the downtown scene across the river in Manhattan but with his heart and soul still located among the good, the bad, and the ugly in his more newly-native Brooklyn. As they used to say in my old neighborhood--"Enjoy."

This review is from: Disturbed Earth: An Artie Cohen Mystery (Artie Cohen Mysteries) (Paperback)

Disturbed Earth by Reggie Nadelson is a very suspenseful and gritty novel about New York City Detective Artie Cohen and his quest for justice. Nadelson brings New York to life in her vibrant descriptions and interesting characters. I loved it and highly recommend it to mystery fans everywhere.
