Intellectual banter remains the key appeal in this third entry in the Rep and Melissa Pennyworth series. Having taken on Kansas City in Unforced Error (2004), the Midwest-trotting couple find themselves in Milwaukee when Rep is asked to deliver the eulogy for a fellow member of the bar, Vance Hayes, a very unpopular fellow who appears to have finally received his comeuppance. Likable copyright attorney Rep turns sleuth when he stumbles on the fact that Hayes' travels to Asia may have led to his murder. Clean plotting, combined with the marital repartee, makes this a solid winner. Onderdeel van de reeks(en)
Bowen effectively captures his Midwestern locale and takes readers on a fast-paced, exciting ride."-Publishers Weekly Vance Hayes died while joyriding on a snowmobile late one night near the Wisconsin Dells. The cold-hearted, hard-headed lawyer goes unmourned by clients, colleagues, or anyone else-including his reluctant eulogist, fellow attorney Rep Pennyworth. In fact, interest in Hayes' death is merely perfunctory until it intersects with the perils facing Vietnamese-American court reporter Sue Key, who is tied to Milwaukee's Hmong community. Could it be that Hayes died not because of any of the rotten and vicious things he did, but because of one decent, human endeavor? The situation is further complicated by deer season when for several weeks in the fall, "up north" is home to 700,000 people carrying loaded firearms. Can Rep and his shrewd wife Melissa find in them the key to solving the puzzle of Vance Hayes' death? " Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
