I read MCGRAVE, the second novel in this twofer, first because I'd heard so much about it. It was hilarious. Just a short, punchy, funny, quick read of a crime actioner. Read it in one sitting one night when I couldn't sleep. I then went back and read WATCH ME DIE, the first book in the set. (The books are not linked to each other; you can read them independently; different characters, plots, settings, etc.) The first novel is another funny crime novel about a loser security guard who investigates a death using TV shows and old mystery novels as a guide. The final solution was actually powerfully plotted, and I was impressed. Not sure if there is a series with that character or not. But would read if there were. Mr. Goldberger, you are a genius!
