Like watching a good crime drama... well written, fast-paced, compelling. If you enjoy a good detective story this fits the bill!

This is a great quick mystery cop drama. It was short short and pretty fast-paced I look forward to reading the rest of this series.

This was my first mystery by Lee Goldberg and it is the start of the Eve Ronin mystery series. I am excited to read the following books.
In this one, Eve is newly assigned to Robbery Homicide following a video of her arresting a celebrity superhero for abusive behavior. She and her partner, Duncan, are called out to investigate a dead man with his throat cut. When Eve realizes that the truck has been moved into their jurisdiction, they leave to investigate another call. This time, they find a bloody massacre, but no bodies. It seems that a mom and her 2 children have been killed. As Eve investigates, she relies on her instincts to follow clues.
I liked the movie industry references and the old fashioned police work. I liked the strong nature of Eve. I look forward to following her career.
