Synopsis

A body so badly burned that it could be mistaken for a movie prop...except for the smell. That's not something the LAPD finds lying on the street every day. And when Detective Tully Jarsdel is called to the scene, it's clear to him that something about the placement of the corpse is intentional, even ritualistic. Jarsdel's former career in academia seems to finally be coming in handy, rather than serving merely as material for jokes from his partner, Morales. But nothing Jarsdel learned in school can prepare him for the deep evil behind this case, which appears to be as hopeless as it is violent. As Jarsdel and Morales attempt to settle their differences and uncover the motive behind the horrendous crime, they find themselves dragged into the underbelly of a city notorious for chewing up and spitting out anyone dumb enough to turn their back on survival.

Goodreads review by Heidi on March 02, 2024

I confess that in addition to being well-written, my favorite series usually features an oddball detective. Male or female, I’m happier when they are on the unique side of intriguing. I adore Inspector Detective Vera Stanhope, Agent Pendergast, Charlie Parker (and friends) and one of my newer acquai......more

Goodreads review by Tara on November 05, 2019

Well, this was definitely a new twist and a refreshing one at that, as a History Professor turns Homicide Detective in L.A. I will admit that he left me stranded at times as he applied historial intellect to cases. Extremely interesting characters and overall a very good read. I will look forward to......more

Goodreads review by Ed on January 21, 2021

Protagonist is a college history professor turned LA Police detective which offers him unique insights in solving murders. Unfortunately his penchant for lecturing other cops (and readers) on topics completely unrelated to the bizarre murder case he's working renders him for me, a pedantic bore. Fiv......more

Goodreads review by Linda on February 04, 2020

3.5 STARS Detective Tully Jarsdel is a rather unique character. The son of two dads, he disappointed them terribly when he left his job as a history teacher and became a law enforcement officer, and now a homicide detective. He's known by his mentor and colleagues as a 'brain' as he's one of the few......more
