For all this talk of uneasiness, The Electric Sublime is still written with a delicate touch. If half of it is murder, half of it is the quiet comfort of being in love. To have those two side by side" it's worrisome. Breslin's professional and domestic lives are already overlapping. She dates an artist. But then what's to stop the rest of it from spilling over? Artists are in the crosshairs. Breslin has brought Art Brut into her home. Who is to say that the body count and property damage that surround Brut won't follow onto Breslin's doorstep? This book has a tendency to pay off mysteries by creating new ones. I am confident Margot will make it out. I just hope she makes it out alive. Read Full Review
