Minneapolis detectives Leo Magozzi and Gino Rolseth are bored--ever since they solved the Monkeewrench case, the Twin Cities have been in a murder-free dry spell, as people no longer seem interested in killing one another. But with two brutal homicides taking place in one awful night, the crime drought ends--not with a trickle, but with an eventual torrent. Who would kill Morey Gilbert, a man without an enemy, a man who might as well have been a saint? His tiny, cranky little wife, Lily, is no help, and may even be a suspect; his estranged son, Jack, an infamous ambulance-chasing lawyer, has his own enemies; and his son-in-law, former cop Marty Pullman, is so depressed over his wife's death a year ago that he's ready to kill himself, but not Morey. The number of victims--all elderly--grows, and the city is fearful once again." The detectives' investigation threatens to uncover a series of horrendous secrets, some buried within the heart of the police department itself, blurring the lines between heroes and villains. Grace MacBride's cold-case-solving software may find the missing link--but at a terrible price.

Am enthralled with this author - from the first reading of Tracy's first book I just had to have the subsequent books. Live Bait is the second book in this series and I find the references to previous cases and incidents gives continuity to the series. The familiarity with the characters is also appreciated. PJTracy writes with such a talent that you are on the edge of your seat and just cannot put the book down,
Live Bait follows the intrinsic trails of former WWII camp survivors who take it upon themselves to search out former guards at these camps. A very gripping story that holds the readers' interest .
I wish there were more books by this author.

WOW GREAT BOOK
I just recently read a book by PJ Tracy and it was the greatest. It keeps you in suspense as to who did the crime until close to the end. I love those kind of books. After reading that one I decided to buy all their books. Now I cant put them down. Would recommend this authors books to everyone who loves a good crime mystery.
