One of the best thrillers I've read in a while "Shutter Island" is the first book by Dennis Lehane I've ever read. I heard about this book from a movie Website. Apparently Wolfgang Peterson (director of Air Force One, and In the Line of Fire) has optioned this book to be turned into a movie. Reading this book, I can say it would make a FANTASTIC movie. But I digressDennis Lehane's prose is very well paced; secrets behind every corner.

Lehane is a master of characterization, setting, plotting, narrative, and everything else it takes to be a great writer. What an experience reading Shutter Island was..
