"Chicago noir aficionados will love Dianne Gallagher’s debut novel, Too Dark to Sleep... I didn’t want to put it down. I was fascinated by Gallagher’s depictions of the subcultures of Chicago police detectives, the Cook County Medical Examiner’s Office and Stateville Penitentiary. It’s a world of clout-influenced decision making, where who you know, nine times out of ten, trumps what you know. After all, that’s the Chicago Way!" - Richard Reeder, author of Chicago Sketches
