Show Notes

Acclaimed New York Times bestselling author Dennis Lehane’s latest, “Small Mercies,” is a brutal depiction of criminality and power and an unflinching portrait of the dark heart of American racism. Mary Pat Fennessey, propelled by a desperate search for her missing daughter, begins turning over stones best left untouched.
