Amazon Editorial Review:
"Two short novels by a couple who've each gone it alone very successfully in their previous literary efforts make for a double treat for fans of both authors--Faye, whose mysteries feature a similarly uxorious couple in Rina and Peter Decker, and Jonathan, whose Alex Delaware novels starring a thoughtful child psychologist who's luckier in crime-busting than in love are even more popular. Not as satisfying as each author's full-length efforts, Double Homicide nonetheless offers a tasty side dish for their fans, and their protagonists venturebeyond Los Angeles to tread new geographical territory, too. In Boston, a popular college athlete is slain in a busy nightclub, but what seems like an open-and-shut case turns out to hinge on forensic evidence that points to a very different conclusion. Detectives Michael McCain and Doris Breton unravel the mystery in Beantown, while two other new characters, Darryl Two Moons and his partner Steve Katz, discover that gallery owner Larry Olafson's brutal slaying has repercussions that resonate far beyond Santa Fe's trendy Canyon Road. Neither of these novellas makes the most of either author's gifts at character development, which lend themselves to a longer format, but that won't stop their dedicated readers from snapping them up and savoring them until the Deckers or Dr. Delaware turn up in their next adventures." --Jane Adams

This is my 1st experience with anything written my Faye & Jonathan Kellerman. Basically, this audiobook is two novellas. The first novella is interesting and really well read by John Rubenstein, but the ending was a let down. The 2nd novella starts off slowly, vut soon picks up and the ending is better than the 1st novella. The 2nd novella is read by Lou Diamond Philips.

I read this a while back, but I enjoy both authors, so I wouldn't mind listening to it, and Mom might want to listen too.

Thank you for sharing with me. I have read some of Jonathan Kellerman but not his wife. This will be fun. First, I will lend this to a friend and her husband who listen before I get to it as I have a number ahead of this one.
I was disappointed in this book. It thought the stories would be joined in someway. Now, off to a new listener.
