[Mimi · Rating 3 out of 5]

This was quite a fun little mystery; and I didn't even have to have read the first 3 to know what was going on. The frazzled time squeezed doctor couple are good protagonists. Sadly, I think this is a lot like what being a doctor is like: not enough time, not enough quality time with your loved ones and the consequences thereof.

I loved this series. I wish Bill Pomidor had written more of them. A little bit forensic, sometimes a little tense, but mostly a light touch.
