One of the strongest of Fairstein's series yet, with a convoluted plot that keeps you guessing right up to the action-packed climax.

Not one of her best efforts, but good to keep the character details of their lives in order.

Enjoyable, but I don't think it's her best effort. I never got fully into the story until about halfway through -- in the end it was a good read, but I was worried for a bit. I still like this cast of characters and the Greater NYC settings.

The Kills is the 6th book in the Alex Cooper series by Linda Fairstein. Cooper works for the Manhattan DA's office. She is trying a rape case that seems to be attached to the murder of an elderly woman. The US government, a dethroned king, and a little boy are in the center of the story. But can she find out how the cases are connected before she becomes another victim?

It is edge of your seat action until the end.

All of Fairstein's Alex Cooper novels are set in New York City and most include interesting little known corners of New York City and explore various aspects o business and the arts. This novel is no exception and involves, a high end coin collection and the activity of an elderly victim back in the 1950's
This, like her other novels. continues an interesting cast of characters from earlier books, the detectives and other attorney's she works with and the interaction with her and each other working together as a team.ADA Cooper along with her sidekicks, Mercer Wallace and Mike Chapman are once again embroiled in a whodunit that defies the usual norm. Going to bat for a witness to murder leads to other murder investigations but it is not clear how they relate to each other. Get on the boat because you are about to take a cruise to the "Kills," an area in New Jersey that is a known dumping ground for bodies.

I have read Fairstein's Alex Cooper Series through book 6 and have thoroughly enjoyed the series thus far. Enjoyed all but book #5 which had way too much information about museum archives. This book deals with some antiquties, however, there is more of a human element to it. Enjoy how Fairstein develops her characters. Very believable and likable. The Kills is certainly a good read with good twists.
