From Publishers Weekly

The second collaboration by bestsellers Jonathan and Faye Kellerman (after Double Homicide) offers two thin novellas that dedicated fans will most appreciate. In the first, My Sister's Keeper, Faye Kellerman's LAPD detective Peter Decker makes an extended cameo role in an inquiry into the murder of an activist lesbian California state representative, Davida Grayson. Grayson, who was the focus of threats from politicians and members of the radical right opposed to her support for stem-cell research, is found shot to death in her Berkeley office; an uninspired pair of local police find that the dead woman's personal relationships, rather than her politics, may have motivated the killer. The second story, Music City Breakdown, gives Jonathan Kellerman's consulting psychologist, Alex Delaware, a little more to do after Nashville detectives probing the stabbing murder of recording artist Jack Jeffries learn that Delaware had been treating the dead man. The solution is as unsurprising as that of My Sister's Keeper. (Nov. 21)

From AudioFile

This second collaboration by the Kellermans, who usually write novels separately, contains two novellas. In MY SISTER'S KEEPER, Davida Grayson, a state representative who is a lesbian, a progressive, and a supporter of stem-cell research, is murdered by one of her numerous enemies. Detectives Will Barnes and Amanda Isis must uncover the killer. Faye Kellerman's series hero, Detective Decker of the LAPD, makes a cameo appearance. MUSIC CITY BREAKDOWN involves the murder of folk guitarist Jack Jeffries, who happens to be the patient of Jonathan Kellerman's series regular, Alex Delaware. In both works John Rubinstein provides a credible narration that showcases his deep voice and penchant for clear detail. The novellas are enhanced by Rubinstein's familiar voice and precise intonation.

4.0étoiles sur 5 A DOUBLE DOSE OF THRILLERS, Janv. 30 2007
Par Gail Cooke (TX, USA) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Capital Crimes (Hardcover)

Capital Crimes by the Kellermans, a crackerjack husband and wife writing team, is capital thriller reading. In fact, a double dose of it because the book holds a pair of novellas that bring back familiar protagonists to do what they do best - solve mysteries.

The first novella, My Sister's Keeper: Berkeley, finds state representative Davida Grayson stone cold dead in her office. And, her demise was not a pretty one.

Now, just because Davida held elective office does not necessarily mean that she was popular. We read: "She recalled (her) Mother's first words after the election results were tallied and Davida's supporters broke into raised-fist cheers in the social hall of the old Finnish church.

Be careful, dear. Don't get cocky and think because you can get elected here that you're really popular.
Mother was being her typical negative self, but there was some truth to her admonitions. Davida knew she'd made many enemies, many of whom she had never met. "

There were those among her own faction who didn't care for her at all, others opposed her backing of stem-cell research, and more hated her because she was gay. Take your pick.

LAPD Detective Peter Decker steps in to try to solve the crime before one more corpse is found.

Music City Breakdown: Nashville takes us to another part of our country - the place some call our musical capital. A one time A-List musician is found murdered and it's up to Nashville Police Department's Murder Squad partners Baker Southerby and Lamar Van Gundy to discover not only whodunit but why.

Once they begin probing into the late great's past they uncover quite a few surprises. Of course, famous musicians aren't the only ones who may have something to hide.

Enjoy!
