Manhattan Nocturne (26)

Manhattan Nocturne
Colin Harrison

A couple of summers ago or more Mens Health recommended Colin Harrison books. I picked some up at the library and had not gotten to them. They start a bit slow.. it is *heavy* on his thoughts and observations.. reminded me of the Mickey Spillane type novels of the 50's only updated today.. It was not cheesy, just verbose.. It takes a while for the story to develop.. but it is a good mystery... Beautiful woman whose successful movie directors husband is found dead. She asks a newspaper columnist for help.. in he comes in the middle of the police, and his billionaire boss who are all interconnected in a strange way.
And enjoyable book, and I do have more of his novels and will work though them some time.

Hey and with this book I am officially back on track with my book a week goal. 26th book in the 26th week of the year. :)
