5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful PI debut, 7 Jan 2005
By Untouchable (Sydney, NSW Australia) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
This is an enjoyable debut private investigator mystery that delivers a solid introduction to Lincoln Perry and Joe Pritchard as well as a well-worked mystery and even a surprise or two at the end. It's the kind of page-turner that has left me eagerly awaiting the next book featuring the Cleveland detectives. It won Michael Koryta the 2003 St Martins Press PWA Prize for Best First PI Novel, a terrific achievement but made more notable by the fact that he was 20 when he wrote the book. I was curious to find out whether the book would live up to the hype. My hopes were high and I'm pleased to say, I haven't been disappointed.

Set in Cleveland and told from the first person perspective of Lincoln Perry, the two detectives are hired to investigate the death of a fellow PI and the disappearance of his wife and daughter. The case leads them into a fiery confrontation with Cleveland's richest and most influential businessman as well as the Russian mafia.

I would put the tone of the book on the lighter side of hardboiled with subtle injections of humour through Perry's sharp tongue softening the mood. Neither PI carries any issues into the story, at least none of great note and although there are occasionally some violent scenes, Koryta doesn't get carried away with lurid descriptions designed to shock. This is another great book for PI fans.
