100 Book Challenge - Book 31 - Dirty Martini

Book 31 / 100
Book: Dirty Martini (Jack Daniels Mystery #4)
Author: J.A. Konrath
ASIN: B00BB2ECFK / ISBN: 978-1401302795
Pages: 316

Chicago police Lieutenant Jacqueline "Jack" Daniels is back, and this time she's up against her toughest, and possibly scariest, adversary yet!

A sicko calling themselves "The Chemist" is spreading poison into the city's food supplies at random. But that's just the start of what they have planned. With her trusty partner, Herb, switching departments to end his career in the relative safety of the robbery division, and saddled with a new, and inexperienced, partner, Jack must find and stop The Chemist before he kills fifty thousand people in the single biggest act of terrorism the US has ever seen.

Throw in a curve ball of a proposal from her boyfriend Latham, a new Police Superintendent and a PR guy who's only goal is to save the tourism reputation of the city, and it all adds up to make this the greatest case to date!

Rating: 5 out of 5 Stiff Drinks. Oh goodness! With the exception of some typos (missing letters and incorrect capitalization) this is an amazing thrill ride, and one dandy of a mystery. J.A. Konrath has a way or weaving the tale in such a way that the true motives aren't revealed until the end
