"Once a police detective in St. Paul, Minnesota, Rushmore McKenzie has become not only an unlikely millionaire, but an occasional unlicensed private investigator, doing favors for friends and people in need. When his stepdaughter Erica asks him for just such a favor, McKenzie doesn't have it in him to refuse. Even though it sounds like a very bad idea right from the start. The father of Malcolm Harris, a college friend of Erica's, was found murdered a year ago in a park in New Brighton, a town just outside the Twin Cities. With no real clues and all the obvious suspects with concrete alibis, the case has long since gone cold. As McKenzie begins poking around, he soon discovers another unsolved murder that's tangentially related to this one. And all connections seem to lead back to a group of friends the victim was close with. But all McKenzie has is a series of odd, even suspicious, coincidences--until someone decides to make it all that more serious and personal"--… (más)

This was rather interesting: Nina's daughter, Erica, beings home a friend (Malcom) whose father,, Frank, was murdered a year previously. Malcom asks McKenzie's help in discovering who killed his father...

Malcom's father was a wife-beater, and everyone in their dinner group knew it.... With the agreement of 2 other police jurisdictions, McKenzie investigates Frank's murder & he finds two other murders that are very likely connected to Frank's murder.

Frank worked as HR director for a cosmetics manufacturer, the previous owner (also murdered) was a rapist and preyed upon the female employees; a member of the dinner group was promoted to run the company and she subsequently fired the HR Director that allowed the abuse to continue.

Also in the story is a company spy... and the children of the dinner group.... All involved in some manner or another.

I like McKenzie: he's not a "tough" he's not arrogant, but he's really a good guy who does his best to help people pro-bono. ( )
