This is the latest entry in the Peter Decker/Rita Lazarus mystery series set in California. It's around the 15th book, so I don't recommend picking this book up unless you've read the others, but if you like dark and intriguing mysteries, this is a good series. I really like that fact that Rita is Orthodox Jew, so I've learned about some of the practices involved. Imagine never having a Big Mac because you can't mix meat and dairy. If you do pick this series up, you should really start at the beginning, otherwise you'll miss out on a lot of back story.
