I've read 4 of these Les Roberts books now, including Pepper Pike, and I am now officially "hooked" on the series and the characters. Les has a great ability to keep the pace moving and the books never seem to have slow spots. Well done.

Growing up in Chagrin Falls (not far from Shaker)left me with an interest in northern Ohio. Great fun to read about familiar landmarks as a setting for Milan Jacovich's exploits as recorded by Les Roberts.
