kandicez's review against another edition
3.0
In this installment Goldberg has Monk follow Dr. Kroger to Germany (Natalie in tow) because he can't bear to miss his thrice weekly therapy sessions during Dr. Krogers much deserved vacation. Of course, being Monk, murder follows him. Wherever. He. Goes.
It was fun to read about Monk even more out of his element than usual. I missed Stottlemeyer and Disher, but Dr. Kroger has always been a great character, and I was glad to spend more time with him.
Poor Natalie really needs a vacation soon, and I hope Goldberg does a better job of writing her one in the near future. Probably not, though. Monk will get in the way.
*sigh*

I mean these are fine. They just aren’t the same as the show because they changed the characters a little to much for my liking. I did like that there was a psych reference though. As for the plot there wasn’t really a mystery which was kind of a bummer and I honestly it didn’t even feel like they were in Germany.

This took about 3 hours to read by the pool. It was entertaining enough and read just like an episode of the show.
