Well, killings - in plural - are not quite my cup of tea. But I think maybe my brother will read this. I'll ask him anyway.

I read the book a couple of months ago, so my memory isn't that accurate any more. But I do remember enjoying the book, and especially I liked Dave Gurney. It's such refreshing when the main character solves crimes with his brains and not by guns/shooting/violence. I'll certainly read more of Gurney's adventures.

I was thinking that this wouldn't be "my kind of book" but I enjoyed it a lot, and want to read more of these! Really intriguing mystery, and even if there was a bit too much violence to my liking, the character of Dave Gurney was so interesting that I really liked the book.
