Good stuff....
Another series to consume! A good one, can't wait to read the next title. Myron Bolitar is early 30's, lives in the basement of his parent's house, is a sports agent but used to be a lawyer/mysterious government agent of some sort, has an....interesting....best friend and sidekick, and seems to be a one-woman man. Quick comebacks and quite humorous.
When Bolitar's first superstar, football player Christian Steele, receives an anonymous (porno) magazine with a photo of his long-missing girlfriend, Cathy Culver, inserted into one of the 1-900 ads, Bolitar is on the case! It's helpful that he is intimately involved with the Culver family since his past love is the missing girl's older sister, Jessica. And, of course, Jessica now reappears in his life. Big sigh. And the whole time that he's working on this case he has all sorts of other problems happening with his current clientele that have to be dealt with.
It's fun to get a peak into the professional sports world. This is a fast-paced mystery with lots of twists and turns, great clues, funny reperte, and wonderfully crafted characters. A winner.
