"A USA Today bestseller from an author hailed as "a genius" (Lee Child)" This tells me I need never read a Lee Child novel because he thinks someone who evidently can't invent new characters and has to keep retreading a really old one is a genius? How low is his bar?! The plot has it that, "When a friend's nephew is accused of murder, sleuth VI Warshawski investigates - and uncovers a link to a stolen artifact with dangerous ties." What, are those railroad ties? I refuse to read any book with the world 'sleuth' in the description, or a claim to the effect that "Everyone will want to go along for this ride." No, you don't get to speak for me.
