T. C. Boyle is as varied in his material as he is prolific. Light-years away from his novels Drop City and The Women, When the Killing's Done presents a dramatic struggle that verges on thriller. Boyle still brings plenty of caustic wit, especially when skewering the extremities of the environmental movement, elevating this into so much more than a very effective page-turner.
