Green-Eyed Lady: A Mystery (A Jack MacTaggart Mystery) Tekijä: Chuck Greaves
Lots of great one-liners.
Modern day hard-boiled detective/attorney w/ 2 women aiding & abetting him.
A set-up sex-scandal w/ a candidate for senate, a stolen Morisot painting, a murdered former prostitute turned art dealer & her partner dead as well...
Both candidates are assholes, one more than the other, dirty politic, nutcase wives & relatives...
The book held my interest, even if the political aspect bored me.

The book held my interest, even if the political aspect bored me.
This is an engaging story of family and love, but what I particularly appreciated was the way it personalized and brought to life the difficulties of balancing land use and environmental decisions--and, in the process, taught me a lot about the actual processes of fracking and gas extraction.
I received this book for free through the goodreads first reads program.
