Another great outing with Sgt. Brant, one of the most original characters in crime fiction. In this book there is a serial killer on the loose whose victims all display bad manners so Brant deals with the situation as only he can. A quick read of only 182 pages but packed with more plot and better characterizations than many books three times that length.

I have enjoyed Bruen's other novels but this one disappointed me. The set up is terrific but half way through, the book suddenly accelerates to rushed and implausible conclusions for several of the characters. A shame.

Quick interesting read. However, the ending was a disappointment.
