Andrew Vachss is one of my favorite authors.

I just finished "That's The Way I Roll". I was a real fan of his Burke series. This one is off track, for me....Did I miss a point in the book.

He almost got to Milwaukee last month...made it to Forest Park. I'm hoping someday he'll do a signing at Mystery One.

I didn't enjoy the book.
We met Mr. Vachss in the airport lounge in Minneapolis about 10 years ago. He wasn't signing autographs although 4 or 5 people asked him. Seemed very polite and approachable.
