About

Lovable everyman Lew Fonesca, the Man Who Makes Things Work in Sarasota, is once again faced with cases that try his patience and test his sanity.

A local curmudgeon who has been campaigning to end state-sponsored school funding is brutally killed. A recent graduate of a public high school for the gifted is arrested for the crime and turns to Lew for help.

A semi-retired and much beloved singer of children's songs is being anonymously pushed to leave Sarasota, threatened with exposure as a sexual predator. It is up to Lew to uncover the blackmailer and determine whether there is any truth to the accusation.

Lew has decided that life is worth more than just going through the motions. But, will the good life that Lew so richly deserves elude him as he uncovers some very sad truths? His final choice-do the right thing and see his happiness evaporate...or betray a trust and stay happy...

    Reviews

    "Pacing a series is a tricky maintenance job. Move too fast, your hero loses credibility. Move too slowly, your readers get bored. Move just right, you produce Denial."
    New York Times Book Review
    "Lew is still a triumph: a Lew Archer type with nerve endings so sensitive that when he's asked, 'anybody dead?' he replies, 'Most of the people who ever lived."
    Kirkus Reviews on Retribution
    "Good dark fun...Kaminsky strikes new chords of imagination every time out."
    Chicago Tribune on Midnight Pass
