Flipping out by Marshall Karp
Ten words or less: Wisecracking detectives pursue a killer while wives could be targets.
Review: Mike Lomax and Terry Biggs are homicide detectives with the LAPD. When the wife of one of their power playing cop buddies is shot, they investigate. Since they don’t believe Reggie would have shot his own wife, the investigation focuses on her business. She is an event planner, but is involved in the LA Flippers, a group that renovates property. Several other cop wives—and a cop mother-in-law—are also partners. Are they also in danger?
Why bother?
Fans of Robert B. Parker will appreciate the wisecracking banter among the detectives, and fans of Donald Westlake will like the fast-paced humor and action. This is the third book in the series.
