Daddy issues begets lust and lust begets murder.

Cale Hanniford wants answers for his estranged daughters murder. Wendy Hanniford was a young prostitute found slashed to death in her apartment in Greenwich Village. Richard Vanderpoel, son of a minister was caught by police for the murder and later hung himself in his jail cell case closed. But what could’ve happened in Wendy’s life that made such a sordid turn that led would eventually lead to her Death ?

Incomes Matthew Scudder, a former NYPD detective turned unlicensed P.I. Who will do favors for friends for cash. Hired by Wendy’s father, Scudder will uncover dark truths about his daughter Wendy as well as Richard past. But what’s done is done. Wendy is dead and nothing Scudder will uncover will give Cale peace.

9-10. Great read and introduction to Matthew Scudder!!!

回家的路上，我想到原因。他原本進退維谷，不過燙手山芋一日一丟給了我，他便卸下重擔， 接下去會是如何他無所謂。他已經盡力而為，如今問題既然轉了手，他就無須牽掛了。 非常符合第三步的精神：我們下定決心，將自己的生命和意志都轉交到我們各自在生命裡體會到的神的手中。 這話我已聽過無數遍：在第三步的特別聚會，以及所謂的戒酒會談裡——亦即大半聚會開場時的《戒酒聖經》精選文章討論會。我挺喜歡這話的概念，不過對於實踐過程卻是了無頭緒。書裡講到關鍵在於行使意志力：只要願意把重擔交給神，我們終將打開門鎖走出困境。這話聽來頗具詩意，不過媽的我還是搞不懂他們在說哈玩意。 第三步並不表示神會為我們洗濯衣物或者遛狗去。這是另一句大家再三覆誦的話。不過意思是什麼呢？轉交給神，但是全都得自己扛下嗎？聽來滿奇怪的。 別喝酒，吉姆告訴我。別喝酒，盡可能參加聚會。眼下你只消知道這條守則就行了。 旅館櫃抬有個珍留的口信。半夜前隨時可以來電，上頭說，不過當時早已過了午夜。我們還沒敲定固定的禮拜六之約是否照常進行，所以明早我得記得和她聯絡。要不我也可以編個理由取消約會，但明早才說是否為時過晚？對我而言，週六早上取消當晚之約的確過分，而且我敢說 《戒酒聖經》以及《十二加十二》裡頭一定都有相關的諄諄告誡，並附加一句經典名言：行使意 志力是致勝的關鍵。 之後我不同以往，竟然記得要在上床前跪地禱告。「感謝神再度賜予我清醒的一天，」我 說，自覺正義凜然但又其蠢無比。妙的是，這兩種感覺好像常常並存在我裡面。 《烈酒一滴》, Lawrence Block #lawrenceblock #novel #reading https://www.instagram.com/p/CN5IcyYHMwa/?igshid=kxucgbg4bdlt
