Good Book & Fast Paced, Nov 4 2003
This review is from: Bad To The Bone Mm (Mass Market Paperback)
This is the forth book in the Casey Jones series and it starts out with Casey meeting with her ex husband Jeff. He is the reason she served jail time because she took the fall for him on a previous drug bust. In this book Casey has funny things to say and one of my personal favorites was when Bill Butler said to her, "Casey you are just like a train wreck." Her response back is why do you think they call me Casey Jones. This was a very clever part in the book too.
Right after Jeff leaves the office this older blonde woman walks into Casey's office telling her that her ex husband has beaten her up and taken their little girl. She wants Casey to find her for her. Casey feels sorry for this woman who calls herself Tawny, but when she does some investigating and also finds the little girl she begins to wonder if Tawny is really who she says she is.
Casey is drawn into a murder case where Tawny's ex husband is accused of killing the lover of Tawny. When Casey is paid with a bad check from Tawny she starts to believe that maybe the ex husband is being set up and with Casey on the case, you know things are going to start happening. Very nice ending with all the ends tied up neatly.
I will say I didn't like this one as much as the third in the series, but I do like the Casey Jones character and I will continue to read the next books that come out. I do know that number 5 is available and Ms. Munger is in the process of writing number 6 which will probably be out in 2005.

Super Sleuth Casey Jones Does It Again!, April 5 2002
This review is from: Bad To The Bone Mm (Mass Market Paperback)
I like Casey because she's resembles a real person....you can just see her as your wacky cousin or hard-hearted sister (if your sister dresses like a hooker and likes younger men, that is!) I think Casey could whip Stephanie Plumm...after all, Casey *is* a Southern girl!!! This is my favorite book in the series. It's fast-paced, non-stop action. I highly recommend every one of her books!
