Did anyone post a link to the other Lehane book "Shutter Island"? I will give up on The dice man and add my weight to "Shutter Island", unless already has enough seconding and thirding etc. My memory is not what is was and I am too lazy to reread all the posts.

I have very mixed tastes, I've gone reading crazy since recently buying my eReader (Because i'm losing my sight), but yeah Personally I think a very good author, with I hope many great books to come

I don't think we can trust that list. It has as #15 The Godfather which is NOT a mystery novel. There are a few other errors too, but #15 is the biggest error.
