really enjoyed the first two installments in this series, but Yancey kicked it up a few notches here. The last two pages sealed the deal, I'm with this series for the long haul.
Yancey took care of a couple of dangling plotlines that were s...tarting to get tired in a very effective way, along with his best mystery yet. I'd totally sell out for him if he'd get rid of Teddy's secretary once and for all–can't stand this woman.
