Waiting for "Personal"?

The “maddog” murderer who is terrorizing the Twin Cities is two things: insane and extremely intelligent. ut when the brilliant Lieutenant Lucas Davenport is brought in to take up the investigation, the maddog suddenly has an adversary worthy of his genius.

 

 

Black Echo

A Vietnam veteran-turned-detective, Hieronymus “Harry” Bosch discovers the body of a former comrade-in-arms during an investigation and, with the help of an attractive FBI agent, hunts for the murderers on a trail leading back to Saigon.

 

 

The Cut

After returning home from serving in Iraq, Spero Lucas makes a living doing special investigations for a defense attorney and catches the attention of a high-profile crime boss who offers Lucas a high paying job he can’t refuse.

 

 

 

Sins of the fathersSins of the Fathers
by Lawrence Block

The pretty young prostitute is dead, and her alleged murderer hanged himself in his jail cell – case closed. But the dead girl’s father goes to Matthew Scudder for answers, sending the unlicensed P.I. in search of terrible truths about a life lived and lost in a sordid world of perversion and pleasures.
