Picked up DEAL BREAKER a couple of weeks ago from Latte 101 while bored stiff. Was afraid to take it because the shelves were looking a bit sparse.

Quick read that is, as advertised on the book jacket, "both suspenseful and often surprisingly funny."

Myron Bolitar is an ex-pro basketball player turned sports agent who represents a young athlete incriminated in the disappearance of his girlfriend, a college cheerleader. The case is still open and the client has not been cleared, but he is due to turn pro. Before he can, it appears the young woman may still be alive. Bolitar and his employees -- a former female wrestler and an effete preppy who's a badass not to be taken lightly -- become engrossed in tying up these loose ends.

Well drawn characters. Fast, fast-paced read. May look for the next in this series. I do prefer to start any series from the very beginning. We shall see.

Planned to release somewhere in the wilds of Los Angeles, but that was not to be.
