Review of 'Smoke' on 'LibraryThing'
Yet another madcap, funny, touching, and eventful book in this extraordinary series. Having fled Long Beach to recover from his breakup with Grace and too many taxing adventures, IQ stumbles into pursuing a serial killer while his erstwhile partner Dodson discovers he's a marketing genius who can make big bucks at a tony ad agency where he's interning for a washed-up creative. It's a wild ride, with lots of action scenes (maybe a few too many for me) and great humor and heart. This series is something else - in a good way.
