Praise for THE WAY HOME"Nobody can teach George Pelecanos anything he doesn't already know about the inherent drama in the father-son dynamic." -- New York Times "THE WAY HOME remains true to its titular purpose; as a result, the structure is perhaps less weighted toward a classic narrative arc and more toward the journey itself. As with his last two novels, Pelecanos demonstrates that redemption, if it comes at all, is hard-won." -- Los Angeles Times "In George Pelecanos's THE WAY HOME, it's the little things that matter...he's fascinated by the minor decisions that end up making a huge difference in the long run, and the ripples that result when good but imperfect people try to do the right thing - even when they're not exactly sure what the right thing is." -- Washington Post "Between the wonderful dialogue, the characters who unpeel like onions before your eyes, and action that punches from the shoulder and hip - the very technique Thomas Flynn taught young Chris - Mr. Pelecanos brings things off with bravura." -- Washington Times
