Acht Millionen Wege zu sterben: Matthew Scudder #5

The detective's inner battles add so much depth to the story, making me wonder what inspired these choices in character development.

The portrayal felt very real, but I’m curious whether this was based on personal research or experience. How did the author approach writing about such a sensitive topic?

The setting and tone really immerses the reader in a dark version of New York. I’d love to know if the city’s real history influenced this mood or if it was purely fictional creation.
