Lieberman's Thief (Henry Holt Mystery)
Kaminsky's fourth title in his series featuring the long-suffering Chicago detective Abe Lieberman (e.g., Lieberman's Day, Audio Reviews, LJ 3/1/95) is a delight. When career burglar George Patnicks witnesses a murder in the course of a domestic break-in and Lieberman is assigned the case, their paths are fated to cross. As usual, complications arise in Abe's personal life and in the cases he is handling. Reader David Colacci makes all the right choices in his reading: he uses a slightly sardonic voice while infusing dry humor and resignation in Abe's dialog and handles the remaining characters with ease. Kaminsky's story is involving and character-driven, with a feel for their daily lives. A must for mystery collections.?Melody A.
