Death Minus Zero - No Limit,
By Vesta Irene (the Pacific Northwest) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Death Minus Zero (Sam Taylor Mysteries) (Paperback)
Sam Turner is fifty-something, kind, but tough when he has to be. And he's a recovering alcoholic who listens to a lot of Bob Dylan. His private investigation firm is off to a good start. Attorneys, insurance companies, and private citizens have started coming to him and he's encouraged by his early success.
Meanwhile a mentally unbalanced inmate named Norman Bunce has escaped from Dartmoor prison and he brutally robs and plunders, kills and corrupts his way up to York while Sam is getting his act together. When Norman gets to town he hires Sam to find an ex-girlfriend he calls Snow White (because she'd made off with his stash). Sam sees straightaway that Norman might not be the most straightforward, straight and narrow client on the planet, but he's short on cash so he takes the case. Norman moves in with Janet, a girl rowing with only one oar in the water who has a crush on John Lennon. But he can't help himself and soon unexplained bodies start piling up. Sam is suspicious about Norman so he has him followed and Norman begins to suspect that Sam is on to him. Sam Turner is an engaging character, as is Norman in his own way. Add to the mix the splendid supporting cast and you have a book that is impossible not to like. I loved it and it gets five stars from me. Reviewed by Vesta Irene

A very good read.,

This review is from: Death Minus Zero (Paperback)
This series came recommended to me by one of my U.K. booksellers. I read the first in the series and wasn't completely sold, but I am now. Sam and his staff are great characters and well written. I cheered the end of the book, not because I was glad to see it end but because the end was very well deserved. Happily, books 3 - 5 are waiting on my shelf.
