Serpent's Tooth

A Decker/Lazarus Novel

By: Faye Kellerman

Narrated by: Mitchell Greenberg

A man walks into a trendy Los Angeles restaurant -- a disgruntled ex-employee with an automatic weapon -- and seconds later, thirteen people are dead and thirty-two more have been wounded. It is a heinous act of mass slaughter that haunts Homicide Detective Peter Decker.

But, though eyewitnesses saw only the lone gunman -- who apparently took his own life after his bloody work was done -- evidence suggests more than one weapon was fired. It is a disturbing inconsistency that sends Decker racing headlong into a sordid, labyrinthine world of Southern California money and power, on an investigation that threatens to destroy his reputation and his career.

Mitch Greenberg delivers up Decker

This is a good story. Greenberg delivers a great performance as usual. He is the definitive voice of Decker.

there are some plot developments that feel a bit forced in this particular story.

this book has "tooth"

A mystery should have good twists, turns and surprises, and this one does. I would go so far as to say that the mystery in this book is more fully explored that the crime in most of the nine previous novels.

I have always loved the exploration of the main characters' personal lives. That is my favorite aspect of her books. And this one is no different. In fact, in this one we learn more about the kids' lives which is fantastic.

I love this series!

This installment in the series was one of the better ones so far!

Not much of a review I know, but I find it really difficult to critique series by the time you’re up to Book 10.

Love Peter Decker and is team!!

My hero, Peter Decker. He is the Superman of LAPD!! Book'em Pete!! They deserve it.
