I really need a 6 star system, or I need to be able to use halves because this book is more than a 3 star but not quite a 4 star. It's more like 3.75.

This series is much like the Women's Murder Club books by James Patterson - a fast-paced story with a prominent female in the police force working hard, sick cases with her male partner while trying

Author J.A Konrath has a great blog for the newbie self-publisher - which I am. So I thought it would be a good idea to check out some of his fiction books, too.

LOVE! LOVE! LOVE! This book. I enjoy a good mystery and this book delivered. The characters are likable and funny, especially the main character, Detective Jack Daniels. Must warn you that it is a bit gory at times but you can skip that part. This book is the first in a series.
This might be too graphic for some, but I enjoyed it. I like the main characters & will continue to read this series.
Really, really enjoyed Whiskey Sour! Thanks for recommending, Barb....and please bring Bloody Mary to work on Monday! lol
I learned that I wanted to read more J. A. Konrath novels.
