Oh wow - what can anyone ask for more than a brand new Josh Lanyon story? And as always, well worth the wait.While all the 5 star reviews say it better than I can, I do wish to emphasize something that J. McKay noted in her/his review because it goes to the heart of Josh's writing and that is "right from the word go, every word counts". Truly, this is the beauty and hallmark of Josh's authorship - there is absolutely nothing superfluous in a Josh Lanyon book, a most distinguishing feature displayed throughout his body of work and one that makes a re-read (or two or three or more) so very enjoyable.And here's a silly reason why I loved this book - as soon as the Karmann Ghia was mentioned, I got a big grin on my face. This was my very first car and the one I loved the best. Josh has a distinctive way of casually inserting classics in his stories whether they be authors, music, films or now, cars. I always look for that kind of "blast from the past" in his books and it never fails to amuse me.Highly recommended and definitely worth a re-read, or two or three or more.
