There is so much to like about this book and the other Luke Littlefield mysteries. The characters are well rounded and so very interesting. The story is fast paced, a real page turner as they say. The conclusion is satisfying. There is a dash of humor that I enjoyed. Give yourself a gift of a great read.

Fun premise and great characters and situations and a truly enjoyable mystery. Again though, needs loads of editing as the typos, misspelled words, misnamed characters and assorted sloppiness detracts from an otherwise enjoyable read.

Entertaining read. I like this series and the characters. Stanley's wrap-up endings come a little too fast and taste like watered down whiskey. Still, the fun of his stories make up for the less that perfect timing and better clue placement he could create. And I'm always satisfied with the happy resolution for the characters with whom I'm sympathetic.

3.5 rounded up. The writing was much stronger in the first half of the book. Still a good book.
