4.0 out of 5 stars Very good "hard-bolied" PI caper, September 11, 2006

This review is from: Full Cleveland: A Milan Jacovich Mystery (Paperback)

This author/series seems to have fallen through the proverbial cracks with most people I know, (who like these type of books), having never heard of Milan Jacovich and Les Roberts. That's too bad. These are straight forward, crisp PI mysteries, (set in Cleveland, Ohio) and are similar to the books of Greenleaf, Healy and Valin, i.e if you enjoy those authors' books you won't go wrong here.

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.
