Publisher's summary

The daunting task that confronts Gurney, once the NYPD's top homicide cop: determining the guilt or innocence of a woman already convicted of shooting her charismatic politician husband. Gurney quickly finds himself waging a dangerous battle of wits with a thoroughly corrupt investigator, a disturbingly cordial mob boss, a gorgeous young temptress, and a bizarre assassin whose childlike appearance has earned him the nickname Peter Pan. But the identity of the villain at the mystery's center turns out to be the biggest shock of all....

A Dull Book - DNF

This is the forth book in the series and the first one was good but it went downhill from there. I try to avoid series altogether unless I like the first book, but I took a chance on this one because Gurney's character seemed so intriguing. Boy, was I wrong.

I have to say that many people love this book but it was was too dull and slow for me.

Gurney and his Madeline (I can't even remember the correct spelling of her name) are two of the most annoying characters I have ever encountered. Madeline and the chicken coop, and Gurney with his "You may be right." It was his all-purpose response - to the friendly and the furious, the sane and the insane.'

Can SOMETHING happen, please? Or will it all be new age, passive aggressive chat?

6 Hours left of a 15 hour book and I can't go on. This is one of the very few books that I simply cannot finish. I found myself dreading going back to these characters . I am giving 2 stars because the scene with Angelidis actually read true. Otherwise, 1 star because I avoid people like these navel gazers in real life.

Jeff Harding was dull with the delivery of the story as well.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
