Title: Dead Man Running
Review: This was my fist disappointment in the wonderful Alex McKnight series. Our ex-Detroit cop, normally sequestered in the woods along remote Lake Superior, takes off across the country (for reasons too complicated to mention) in search of a serial killer. Phoenix, St. Louis, Grand Rapids and …even… Columbus, Ohio. The whole story seemed a bit farfetched and the writing seemed disjointed. Still, kind of a barn burner, I must say, but missing all the allure of the usual cast of characters in the Paradise, Michigan setting. and the serial killer was a little too much cereal. Look forward to McKnight being back home , finding the usual weird mischief, with his feet up by the fire at the Glasgow Inn in Paradise.
