Worth a read

I've read all of the Toby Peters books and this is a typically solid entry - it's got interesting characters and a decent plot. Kaminsky obviously has respect for Joan Crawford, which makes her a solid character. And the eulogy delivered by Sheldon Minck may be the funniest thing Kaminsky has ever written.
