The Bishop in the Old Neighborhood
Bishop Ryan is back in Chicago, this time in the west side neighborhood of Austin. My cousins grew up across the city line in Oak Park, not far from there. My grandparents lived for many years just a little north of the neighborhood. And as an added bonus, Greeley even mentioned my old neighborhood, Ravenswood, in passing.
As a murder mystery, it moved along quickly enough to make me not want to put the book down, though it does seem Blackie arrives at his solutions not always through deductive reasoning but a bit of the second sight. But that’s to be expected among the Irish… even if said Irishman is a Catholic bishop.
