Story
Born under different stars—Mungo a Protestant and James a Catholic—they should be sworn enemies if they’re to be seen as men at all. Their environment is a hyper-masculine and sectarian one, for gangs of young men and the violence they might dole out dominate the Glaswegian estate where they live. And yet against all odds Mungo and James become best friends as they find a sanctuary in the pigeon dovecote that James has built for his prize racing birds.

Story
In the years before the Mexican Revolution, Mexico is ruled by a tiny elite that apes European culture, grows rich from foreign investment, and prizes racial purity. The vast majority of Mexicans, who are native or of mixed native and Spanish blood, are politically powerless and slowly starving to death. Presiding over this corrupt system is Don Porfirio Díaz, the ruthless and inscrutable president of the Republic. Against this backdrop, The City of Palaces opens in a Mexico City jail with the meeting of Miguel Sarmiento and Alicia Gavilán.

After Emery Hazard loses his job as a detective in Saint Louis, he heads back to his hometown - and to the local police force there. Home, though, brings no happy memories. Hazard's new partner, John-Henry Somerset, had been one of the worst tormentors, and Hazard still wonders what Somerset's role was in the death of Jeff Langham, Hazard's first boyfriend. When a severely burned body is discovered, Hazard finds himself drawn deeper into the case than he expects. Determining the identity of the dead man proves impossible, and solving the murder grows more and more unlikely.

When Emery Hazard and his husband, John-Henry Somerset, arrive home from their honeymoon, they’re shocked (understatement of the year) to find a boy waiting for them on their doorstep. Colt, 15 and eager to pick a fight, claims to be Hazard’s son. It’s almost a relief, then, for Hazard and Somers to be called out to assist the Dore County Sheriff’s Department with what seems to be an impossible murder: a man has been found stabbed to death in a stretch of woods, and the only set of footprints in the soft ground belong to the victim.

What’s happening in Acker’s Gap, West Virginia? Three elderly men are gunned down over their coffee at a local diner, and seemingly half the town is there to witness the act. Still, it happened so fast, and no one seems to have gotten a good look at the shooter. Was it random? Was it connected to the spate of drug violence plaguing poor areas of the country just like Acker’s Gap? Or were Dean Streeter, Shorty McClurg, and Lee Rader targeted somehow?

Wonderful in every way
When we catch up with Henry again, and very possibly the last time, he is in court defending a man from the three strikes law. Only he suffers a heart attack in the middle of the courtroom. It could be a blessing in disguise as it not only brings him and his sister Elena together again, both determined to mend fences and become part of each other’s lives. He also meets someone new; John. A man he has chemistry with from the start and someone who encourages him and supports him. They fit together. As always there were obstacles, but not insurmountable ones and not ones that caused drama, something I’m very grateful for.
Rag and Bone is different in many ways from the other books, it’s focused on family, past and present, and not just any family, but Henry's. It's about making amends and moving forward. But it’s not only Henry and Elena - Vicky the daughter Elena put up for adoption many years comes into their lives. She comes with her young son and a whole lot of trouble in tow. She claims that she and Angel are running from her abusive husband newly released from jail for abusing her. However there are parts of her story that doesn’t add up, and when she’s charged with the murder of said husband it falls on Henry to defend her.
This book was like a balm on our scarred and mangled hearts compared to the others in the series. We finally see some happiness for Henry. Genuine happiness, hope and seeing him settling down some. I know I said in my last review that a happy Henry wouldn’t fit with the rest of the series. But it does. It’s hard won and well earned. Don’t get me wrong, this is still not a fluffy romance, but hope and (positive) possibilities shines through everything. But this series wouldn’t be what it was without some major case, some injustice for Henry to fix. And this time it's his own family that needs fixing. I loved him with Angel, this brave little boy broke my heart with all that he’d experienced in his short life, never expecting anything or barely taking up any space. I just fell for him - hard. From having had no one but himself – and the occasional lover, Henry finally has a family. A family that requires a lot of work, but a family he’s willing to fight for.
Thom Rivera has been the perfect choice of narrator for this series. He understands the characters, the place and time. Now I don’t know anything about him, but from his narration alone, I’m guessing he shares some commonalities with Henry (and Nava) in having at least a mixed heritage. The way he portrays the off-hand comment, the slurs and the off look really shows it’s something he’s all too familiar with. Then there is the way he handles the Spanish words and names. They are genuine Spanish, no Spanglish near it, it’s also effortless and clearly something he’s comfortable with. He even did a credible Aussie accent, which was a nice surprise for me. Anyway, it’s these seemingly small things that really set the tone of a book and makes it more genuine and authentic. It’s why, even if a book is so so (not that it’s the case here), you’d still come back to it, just to listen to Rivera.
I don’t know if this is the end of Henry’s journey, in a way it could be. He’s starting a new chapter in his life and one I think he’ll be very happy with, but I still have hope that I’ll experience more works by Nava and Rivera, because this duo knows what they are doing.

One of My New Favorite Series
*NO SPOILERS*
After listening to 'Lay Your Sleeping Head' a few weeks ago, I found myself instantly hooked on the Henry Rios mystery series. This is currently the final book in the series, but I really hope Michael Nava treats us to at least one more entry! The storytelling is stellar, and Thom Rivera's narration is among the best!

Sad for it to end
Not very many series keep my attention eight books in, but this one certainly did. Henry Rios is an amazing character. Thus book was top notch with great supporting characters and an intriguing mystery. Oh, and-finally-a love interest for Henry. Once again excellent narration.
