I've always been a fan of Tannenbaum's books, but this one is an exception. For Karp-Ciampi fans, it is sad to see how these favorite characters have become caricatures of their former selves. The lengthy past-perfect back-stories and annoying flash-back devices, along with the preposterous plot recycled from previous books make the story almost impossible to follow. If this is your introduction to Butch and Marlene, do yourself a favor and grab any of the earlier books. They're so much better.
