Underkill: An Allen Choice Novel - Paperback

Every bit as edgy and engrossing as Leonard Chang's acclaimed debut crime novel Over the Shoulder, Underkill finds Korean American investigator Allen Choice on a harrowing new case that proves to be a transformative personal journey. Now Allen follows his girlfriend Linda into the Los Angeles underworld of drugs and raves to examine her brother's suspicious death, hoping to repair their deteriorating relationship and aiding her as she once helped him."Underkill is a very fine novel and Leonard Chang grows more impressive with each book. I thought Over the Shoulder was a stand out and now Allen Choice is back in a story even more stirring and absorbing. The key is character. Chang works like a painter, carefully brushing strokes of truth and depth on all of his characters. This portrait is a winner." -- Michael Connelly
