finished this story this afternoon. i really liked it. story is told from a number of pov-s, train, the cop, the woman, set during the eisenhower administration so you have all that baggage carried along. train is black. and some of the telling through his p.o.v. has the verb usage not conjugated like some. and like...maybe all of dexter's stories...there is a kind of aloofness to some of the characters that is telling. strange, too, how in this telling we don't really get much in the way of cop business even though one of the main characters is a cop. they play golf. or train does and the cop sets it up. good read.
