Handler; David
Busted Flush Press
, 2006
The Man Is Back
David Handler's Stewart Hoag is suave, debonaire, and witty. As a ghostwriter for celebrities, he works with a range of bizarre characters--but none so strange (and adorable) as Lulu, his persnickety fish-eating dog and assistant detective. The first two volumes of ...

The Bright Silver Star: A Berger and Mitry Mystery (Berger and Mitry Mysteries)
David Handler
St. Martin's Paperbacks
, 2004
Excellent continuation of a fun series
Tito Molina and Esme Crockett are the Bennifer of Dorset, CT. They're famous, impossibly gorgeous and married. They, their publicist, their fans and van loads of paparazzi have descended on the peaceful, posh village of Dorset for a few weeks of relaxation. However, ...
The Cold Blue Blood: A Berger and Mitry Mystery (Berger and Mitry Mysteries)
David Handler
St. Martin's Minotaur
, 2002
A wonderfully quirky pairing
What makes this mystery so enjoyable is not so much the plot (which is good, but perhaps a trifle far-fetched) as the characters & their interrelationships, particularly Mitch & Des. I love the way both of them are presented as less than perfect, & having their wounds ...
The Sweet Golden Parachute: A Berger and Mitry Mystery (Berger and Mitry Mysteries)
David Handler
St. Martin's Minotaur
, 2006
I am totally Hooked on this series!........
I read backwards in this series, finally reading the first Berger/Mitry Mystery. From reading each of these was like watching the writer perfect his ideas. The writing is outstanding, the dialogue between the characters make you feel like your watching these people ...

This two-volume resource "takes the next step" by pointing out the pitfalls and opportunities created by each law, rule and case discussed and explains not only how to ...
The Sour Cherry Surprise: A Berger and Mitry Mystery (Berger and Mitry Mysteries)
David Handler
St. Martin's Minotaur
, 2008
A deliciously sweet Sour Cherry Surprise
After feeling somewhat disappointed with how David Handler treated faithful readers in his previous installment of the Berger-Mitry series I anxiously awaited amends in 'The Sour Cherry Surprise.' As usual, Mr. Handler delivers not only an excellent and enjoyable ...
The Burnt Orange Sunrise: A Berger and Mitry Mystery (Berger and Mitry Mysteries)
David Handler
St. Martin's Paperbacks
, 2005
As good, if not better than, expected
A very satisfying 2nd installment to this series - which I hope will have a long, successful run. The characters are so engaging, and the depiction of them in this small town, with all of the idiosyncrasies of small town people, is wonderful. Mr. Handler's insight ...
The Burnt Orange Sunrise: A Berger and Mitry Mystery (Berger and Mitry Mysteries)
David Handler
St. Martin's Minotaur
, 2004
Enjoyable as always
I love a mystery that keeps me involved. Until the inevitable murder, not only was I diligently trying to figure out who would get it first, and of course, who was responsible, but the added mystery of Mitch and Des's relationship status kept my mind busy as well. ...
The Boy Who Never Grew Up
David Handler
Recorded Books
, 1998
When the cultural sleuth Stewart Hoag and his sensitive basset hound Lulu take on Hollywood no one is safe from lampoonery. Hoagy was once hailed as a major new literary voice but is now reduced to ghostwriting for celebrities. At the pleading of a smooth-talking studio exec, Hoagy heads to LA to take on his latest assignment. Matthew Wax, aging ...
Man Who Cancelled Himself, The
David Handler
Crimeline
, 1995
Please reprint D. Handler's books - somebody, anybody!
I love reading D. Handler's books, but it's extremely difficult to find them. This title is indicative of the author's great sense of humor, ability to inhabit his story with well-written characters (granted, rather obnoxious and odious people - but, hey, he has to, ...
The Cold Blue Blood: A Berger and Mitry Mystery (Berger and Mitry Mysteries)
David Handler
St. Martin's Minotaur
, 2001
The start of a delightful new series
Though only thirty-two years old, New York City film critic and author Mitch Berger feels his life ended the day his beloved wife died from ovarian cancer. His editor Lacy Mickerson worries that Mitch rarely leaves his Greenwich Village home, passing time watching ...
The Boss
David Handler
Ballantine Books
, 1988
Girl Who Ran Off with Daddy
David Handler
Crimeline
, 1996
The most entertaining American mystery series.
Handler never ceases to dissappoint. This is another installment featuring the sauve yet sarcastic/observant articulate Stuart Hoag. It includes the usual pop culture iconoclasticism (and I can't get enough of that) and the cast of characters that remind me of the Thin ...
Boy Who Never Grew Up, The
David Handler
Crimeline
, 1993
Undiscovered Treasure!
All the books in the Stuart Hoag series are great reads, but this one was the best so far. There are not one, but two surprise endings and you won't know who the killer is until the final pages--I was totally wrong the entire time, and that doesn't happen very often! ...
