Meow! It's time for another book by our good friend E.J. Copperman! This time it's the sixth (and, sadly, final) entry in the Jersey Girl series, Good Lieutenant!
Synopsis:
LA lawyer Sandy Moss comes to falsely accused lieutenant Trench's aid in this final instalment of the critically acclaimed legal cozy mystery series.
While settling into her new home in Los Angeles together with her boyfriend and TV star Patrick McNabb, attorney Sandy Moss receives a phone call from the LA Men’s Detention Center. It’s a new client accused of murder: the near-stoic Lt. K.C. Trench!
Being good at his job but not well-liked in his department, Trench is accused of killing a fellow LA police officer whom he openly despised and threatened. With the odds against her, Sandy takes on the case of her sometime nemesis/sometime ally. She is certain that Trench can’t be the killer. It seems like someone is trying to pin the murder on him, but who and why? And what isn’t Trench telling her?
Our review:
Chazz: This is the first Jersey Girl for me and now I have to go and read the human's others. What great characters EJ Copperman creates! and without a cat in the story! I love the way Sandy plunges whole heartedly into investigating the stodgy Trench who finds it hard to crack a smile. I must admit though that Patrick does get a bit trying at times. The story was well written and fans of this too short lived series will not be disappointed.
ROCCO: Like the human, I have long been a fan of EJ's. I love the way he can effortlessly put a touch of humor in everything he writes and the Jersey Girl series is an excellent example of that. I admit I shed a tear at the end, mostly because I know it was Sandy and Patrick's last adventure. A definite five paws read.
