The Watchman by Robert Crais


Robert Crais is the bomb! He's still getting better, I think, or maybe just maintaining at a very high level. All the Elvis Cole books are very good, and the others are edge of the seat intense. This Joe Pike book is between the two and seems to be part of a pattern of him edging Elvis into a grittier, more noirish vibe. ****
Soon I'll be reading the latest Michael Connelly, and this is as good as the average Connelly; the distinction may be purely one of taste.
