9 I liked this book more than I liked WHISKEY SOUR, Konrath‘s first Jack Daniels mystery.
It had a better pace and the trial in the second act threw me off the track in figuring out the endgame.
As is JA Konrath‘s style, his killer came up with some twisted shite (Carving out his own eyeball? With a corkscrew? Whisky tango foxtrot?!) and, as always, there were several laugh–my–ass–off moments (“I’m a private investigator. I investigate privates.” and “You look like a shit sandwich, with extra corn.”)…
Hoo, Joe, I think we went to the same middle school!
On the whole, BLOODY MARY was what it was: a fast-paced thriller and worth the time it took to read.
