Stripped

Stripped by Brian Freeman is the second in a series about a police detective. The first in the series was Immoral. Like Immoral, this book is fast paced with twists and turns as the detective and his detective girlfriend try to figure out who done it. This process takes them back to a murder that happened many years ago. In order to solve their current case, they also must solve the old murder case.

I have found that the characters in these books are likable and believable in that they are not perfect. I have also found that some of the situations are not believable at all. I think the author throws in sex in every form of male fantasy, and almost none of it is realistic. That was a bit annoying to me. I know that fiction is not real, and that books are supposed to provide an escape. However, the unrealistic situations and reactions, particularly from female characters, is irritating.

This was a good mystery/who done it read, but I don't know if I will follow the series any further. Happy Reading!
