Homicide detective Jacqueline "Jack" Daniels tangles with a psycno bent on poisoning Chicago. A good, engrossing story, but with few holes...the killer's knowledge to use the smorgasboard of poisons he employs is never fully explained. He seems to have extensive knowledge of horticulture, animal breeding (especially snails), poison extraction and synthesis, and bomb making on the order of Timothy McVeigh. If you are a reader of cozy mysteries, be warned that this police procedural includes graphic descriptions of the perpetrator's crimes, even though the book is laced with humor.

This book was terrific. It kept me thoroughly occupied while stuck in an airport. I had to get all of them so I could read the whole series.
