A Drink Before the War
Dennis Lehane
A Patrick Kenzie and Angela Gennaro Mystery (1st in series)
HarperCollins

Winner of the 1995 Shamus Award for Best First P. I. Novel.

Kenzie and Gennaro are private investigators in the blue-collar neighborhoods and ghettos of South Boston — they know it as only natives can. Working out of an old church belfry, Kenzie and Gennaro take on a seemingly simple assignment for a prominent politician: to uncover the whereabouts of Jenna Angeline, a black cleaning woman who has allegedly stolen confidential state documents.

Finding Jenna, however, is easy compared to staying alive once they've got her. The investigation escalates, implicating members of Jenna's family and rival gang leaders while uncovering extortion, assassination, and child prostitution extending from bombed-out ghetto streets to the highest levels of government.
