Was one of my favorite authors but sadly he is losing it. He is churning out massmarket potboilers. I used to like this character Holly Barker but now that character has almost lost all charm. I the current novel Holly resigns form her post as a chief of police, steals an unholy amount of money and joins the CIA where she is promptly tasked to track a rogue agent who is killing off bad guys. Her character which was kind of cute with the acompanying dog in her role as a small town police officer now becomes ungainly when she joins the CIA and she takes her dog everywhere in the manner of a blind taking the seeing eye dog everywhere. This gets old very quickly. Also there is a cameo appearance by his other hero Stone Barrington.
This will be the last book that I will read by this author.
