The Double

Author’s best days may be in the past. Too much tv money and what is that weird jacket photo?

The Double (Spero Lucas)

The Broken Places

Ace is the place for a good read.

The Broken Places (A Quinn Colson Novel)

Pronto

Filling in the gaps with Raylan and Elmore.

Pronto: A Novel

Suspect

Crais steps to another level. Pretty good read.

Suspect

Night Moves (Doc Ford)

An odd series but seems to capture the Florida spirit.

Night Moves (Doc Ford)

The Prophet

Mid-tier author in this genre. Pretty weak ending, but a decent read overall.

The Prophet

Killing the Blues

Weakest of the surrogates, but it is what it is.

Robert B. Parker’s Killing the Blues (A Jesse Stone Novel)

Raylan

Pretty good way to go out.

Raylan: A Novel

Riding the Rap

Nothing like finding an un-read Elmore on the library shelf.

Riding the Rap: A Novel

Blood Trail

Perhaps my expectations are too high, but this one seemed a bit slack.

Blood Trail (A Joe Pickett Novel)

Taken

Crais is a little too cute with this one. Hope he is not getting bored.

Taken (An Elvis Cole Novel)

The Black Box

Bosch keeps it moving, though the ending is a bit jumbled.

The Black Box (Harry Bosch)

Praying for Sleep

Some decent twists.

Praying for Sleep

Chasing the Dime

A hairball by Connelly is better than most, but it is still a hairball.

Chasing the Dime

Separation of Power

These books become much less tedious after you figure out which chapters to skip.

Separation of Power (Mitch Rapp Novels)

Demolition Angel

Crais has a handle on his female protagonist. Beats Sunny Randall any day.

Demolition Angel

Pale Kings and Princes

This one will blow you away.

Pale Kings and Princes (Spenser, No 14)

Chance

Spencer rolling the dice.

Chance (Spenser)

A Catskill Eagle

Stumbled into some early Spencer novels that I hadn’t read. Much more of a thug in the early days.

A Catskill Eagle (Spenser, Book 12)

Persuader

Something about these Reacher books keeps me coming back.

Persuader (Jack Reacher, No. 7)
