Detective Bradley Daggers is investigating the murder of a woman, a grandmother, and he has several suspects, one of which is the deceased very beautiful, but very bad tempered granddaughter, who wants the case to close quickly so she can get to her inheritance. As the investigation continues, the suspects and motives seem to multiply, including depraved relatives and bungling hit men. There seems to be many people who wanted to separate the victim from her valuables. Throw in some gunfights and a bit of hanky panky and you have the classic who-dun-it.

I LIKED IT!!!!

This book is written like the classic cop shows on television. Every day starts out at the precinct, the one-nine, with the commanding officer giving the assignments, all he has to add is "Be careful out there," and you would think you are reading a copy of a script from Hill Street Blues, but this takes place in Los Angeles so maybe Dragnet would be a better reference.

Each day also includes a weather report, I didn't know it rained so much in California.

Daggers is a big tough cop who doesn't need a partner but after shooting a witness he get a nice looking female partner.

It is a classic plot, with a classic theme and classic characters. But all this being said, I did enjoy this book, putting all the evidence pieces together, as many wrong assumptions as right, a little gratuitous sex thrown in. It was a good suspenseful read.
