I just read this one and besides a bit of a maudlin ending overall it is a great first novel.
The Blade Itself by Marcus Sakey (Minotaur/St. Martins). This Chicago-based author crafts a tension-laden plot to sharply examine a man rebuilding his life. Centring on two lifelong buddies whose lives take a fateful turn during a botched break-in, this is an insightful look at the circumstances that make each of us who we are.
