An Old Friend. . .
+ Middle of the Road for me.
I have done a lot of Kellerman's books on audio; John Rubenstein is a superb reader. I purchased this Kellerman out of state while fleeing Hurricane Ike, and needed something to read in my motel room.
This is the latest in a long series of Delaware books, and the reader is assumed to know his ...

+ No Title
+ If it ain't broke, don't fix it!
I've been a big fan of Harlan Coben for some time now but I have to say that this has got to be one of his best books yet. From the first page I found I couldn't put the book down.
