I wasn't sure at first. The plot was good, and the characters were interesting, but the voices seemed a bit off to me. Overall, though, felt it was amazingly assured for a first novel. Some pathos, a bit of humor, a sense of justice and dogs. Will definitely try more

A modern Sherlock in L.A. hood. I thoroughly enjoyed the characters and their development with a fairly tight plot. IQ is one to enjoy.

3.5 rounded up. I suspect I'll like the next book even more because much of this debut provided the background story for a very different take on a Holmes/Watson-type duo. I'm interested to see where the series goes next.

I am still really enjoying this series. I am looking forward to reading the next book in the series. I.Q. Is one of my favorite new characters.
