Double Homicide

By: Jonathan Kellerman, Faye Kellerman

Narrated by: John Rubinstein, Lou Diamond Phillips

For the first time ever, bestselling novelists Jonathan and Faye Kellermen team up to deliver the launch book in a thrilling new series of short crime novels. This book--printed as a reversible volume with two different covers--contains two stories featuring different detectives solving crimes in different cities.

It’s a reader’s dream come true: a new series co-written by the royal couple of crime fiction—Jonathan and Faye Kellerman! Each book contains two novels jointly written by the duo, featuring different detectives solving crimes in different cities. “In the Land of the Giants” has Boston homicide detectives Michael MacCain and Doris Sylvestor investigating the suspicious death of a college basketball star. And in “Still Life,” the co-worker of a Santa Fe art gallery is murdered, forcing detectives Darryl Two Moons and Steve Katz to put aside holiday celebrations and set things right.

Junk

This performance was a piece of junk. Spent money on something that I thought would be good
from the Kellerman‘s and it turned out to be terrible and too short. Can’t believe I actually bought this thing

OK, I guess

Although it is unusual for a husband and wife team to write a book together, one would be hard pressed to nominate a better pair than these. In order to avoide the possible conflicts that could arise from such a joint venture, the Kellermans took a safe route in its format by dividing the book into two relatively separate parts. OK, so far. What I got, I think, is two novellas pasted together. In addition, I'm still looking for the end of the book. It seemed to me that the ending of the book was accomplished in the final thirty or words. Given the proven talents of both authors, I was somewhat disappointed. However, the book (warts and all) is still better than many others being flogged these days.the other within its genere being flogged these days.

disappointed

Not up to the standard I have come to expect from Kellerman

Two are not equal.

I’m a long time fan of Jonathan Kellerman. Though wife and son have also authored, they are not Jonathan. The first half of this book was awesome. The second half, I restarted 3 times and eventually fell asleep to it. I also love John Rubenstein narrating.

Disappointing

I'm a big fan of Jonathan Kellerman, but these two stories were a real disappointment. Neither the plots nor the character development were particularly good, resulting in a couple of bland short stories (novellas only based on their length) with not much to recommend them.

If you really like either of the Kellermans or both, then go ahead and try Double Homicide. Otherwise, save your money...
