The Mercedes Coffin Audiobook

" Lieutenant Decker is assigned an old murder when a Silicon Valley entrepreneur notices similarities in a current case and offers the LAPD a large monetary incentive for solving it. At home, Rina continues to astonish with her admirable culinary and other domestic skills while Hannah has grown into a teenager. It's all a little predictable but still a good read. "

" Faye did an excellent job of spinning this tale. I have come to enjoy her books and her writing style. She has done a super job of developing Lt. Decker and his team. "

" A well-written police procedural, good pacing, interesting characters. "

" I've read several of her books and found them to be just okay. Her husband, Jonathan Kellerman, writes an excellent suspense novel, but Faye Kellerman's books are a bit plodding. The plot is so convoluted that it's easy to lose your way at times; and, the suspense just isn't there. I don't find myself that engaged with the characters either. "

" While a predictable murder mystery isn't always an unwelcome thing, I have to admit that Faye Kellerman has lost a bit of something lately. I think it might be that she doesn't do as much character development as she used to... instead, she focuses more on the procedural aspect. All well and good, but it makes for a rather lukewarm novel. "

" I learned nothing from this book. In MHO, it wasn't one of her better stories. I found the story somewhat uneven and felt the ending left a lot to be desired. "

" Average mystery, nothing too shocking. A little hard to follow at the beginning because of the number of names/characters. "

" I think Faye Kellerman keeps getting better. I enjoyed this very much. It includes LAPD detective Peter Decker & wife Rina Lazarus and Decker's daughter who is also member of LAPD. "

" Maintaining the very high standard of story and pace. "

" Worst book she has ever written. What a disappointment. Fuzzy, meandering, repetitive. Ugh. "

" I normally enjoy Faye Kellerman's books, but I really struggled to get through "The Mercedes Coffin". Too many characters to keep track of. "

" It's a long time since I've ready any Peter Decker/Rina Lazarus books by Faye Kellerman. This one didn't disappoint except for a rather weak ending. Still it had me gripped, lots of plots and sub-plots to entertain and retain interest. "

" Good book. This was a nice surprise, and I will definitely read more of this series. "

" Well..first there is Jane and she met up with Joe..then along comes Gord and Don..they see Joan..and she is wearing really nice clothes..they go here and there and do lots of talking in circles..blah blah and so on..good plot..long round about way of telling the story! "

" I really like her Peter Decker series--but usually not her other books. This one was no exception. Peter solves another one! "

" I can't wait to read this, i love all her books! I'm an early reviewer on the Library Thing and was selected to receive this but i haven't gotten it yet... "

" Did not finish this one. Sadly, I might be done with Faye! "

" Way too much language! 2 crimes similar MOs are they related or just happenstance?? Only Peter Decker can figure it out. "

" A bit slower moving than my preference. "

" I love this series but not this offering. Too chopped up and incomplete. "

" I can't wait to read this, i love all her books! I'm an early reviewer on the Library Thing and was selected to receive this but i haven't gotten it yet... "

" oh, the mighty have fallen; faye kellerman needs a really good editor now that she's famous enough to get anything published. yick. "

" I love this series but not this offering. Too chopped up and incomplete. "

" A good book in the Peter Decker series, but not quite as good as some of the others in the series. "

" 8/10 Nice to return to "old friends"! "

" Good book. This was a nice surprise, and I will definitely read more of this series. "

" Listened to most of this book on tape it with Dave on our trips to and from Mpls. What a great way to pass the time on the road. "

" To echo the comment by another reviewer...I can't believe I just spent all that time reading this thing only to come to an entirely non-conclusive ending. Who did it? Good question. Not such a good entry in the series. "

" Listened to the book. It was a good one. "

" Faye did an excellent job of spinning this tale. I have come to enjoy her books and her writing style. She has done a super job of developing Lt. Decker and his team. "

" A great quick read! I was pulled into the story immediately and kept the pace throughout. Decker is a fascinating character. I really like that Kellerman shows the people side of Homicide, the characters are real family members trying to do their very best. "
