## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A smart noir, crackling with wit and style.
            
*by C***L on January 12, 2015*

The Mill Town follows private eye Hugh Doherty from back alleys to bar-room brawls as he unravels a tangle of corruption and greed surrounding the disappearance of a political big-wig, and a shady real estate deal gone wrong. Doherty is forced to confront Rhode Island’s political machine, the mob, a slippery but stunning dame, and some strong-arm mill workers in this tale that combines a hard boiled mystery with a very human, sympathetic look at the decay of Rhode Island’s mill towns, and those individuals hit hardest by the one-two punches of World War II and the subsequent collapse of New England’s industrial economy. Kafrissen manages to maintain Doherty’s tough edge and an outlook that feels authentic to the time period while incorporating thoughtful historical details and highlighting concerns (such as treatment of women and cultural and religious tensions) in a way that is informative and compelling for a modern sensibility.  As a result, The Mill Town is more than the typical noir mystery novel, but still manages the fast pace, wry banter, and intriguing plot twists of the best of that genre. – Carrie Russell, author of Drowning Cactus
  

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A fun read with loads of Rhode Island references
            
*by M***R on February 6, 2019*

I'm a fan of geography-based mysteries and The Mill Town is a good one.  Doherty, the private eye main character, is a rich and well-developed character and the story has enough twists and turns to be engaging.  The book is a window on a place and time.  I also appreciated that the narrative is not as dark and perverse as some in the genre.  Looking forward to reading more in the series.
  

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Book. Very interesting.
            
*by R***E on January 7, 2018*

I enjoyed the book vey much. I was brought up in this town. I knew and was related to some of the characters in the book. If you don't have any connection to West Warwick it's still a good read. Maybe four stars.
