Read Nemski’s Review of ‘Hope Never Dies’ by Andrew Shaffer

…then you may or may not read ‘Hope Never Dies’ by Andrew Shaffer.

It’s as Delaware as sending your kids to a white flight school while drinking a Dogfish 60.

As a Delawarean, I was reading “Hope Never Dies” not to snipe at its getting Delaware wrong, but rather to bask in its Delawareness. And there wasn’t a lot of that. There was a detective named Dan Capriotti, a walk on the Riverfront, a drive up Route 52 and the smatterings of neighborhoods, but there wasn’t enough. Look, I know Delaware ain’t no Vegas, but we got some things, we really do. We’re not just a tollbooth.
