This is a Matthew Scudder mystery and MS has always been my favorite LB detective. Don't know how I missed this one as it is an earlier MS than what I have read. But, this has the usual twists and turns and the wonderful tongue in cheek humor throughout of the inimitable Mr. Block. Highly recommended.
