Showstopper (Peter Diamond, Bk 21)
hardtack avatar reviewed on + 2586 more book reviews


When I finished my first "Peter Diamond" book, I knew I needed to get the rest of the series. Well, except for one book, I'm at the end of the series, as Peter Lovesey hasn't written one since last year and there is nothing on Fantastic Fiction to hint there is another one coming.

This one was exceptional, as, once again, all the red herrings are tossed aside and the real culprit is revealed. What makes it so enjoyable is it isn't just "Peter Diamond" figuring it out, but all the members of his team keep coming up with information which sets him on the right track. Of course, this happens in many of the books, but probably not to such as extent as in this one.

I'm going to miss Peter Diamond, as I kept his books to read as rewards for when I was in need of a really exceptional page turner.
