Murder on Embassy Row by Margaret Truman

5.0

This is one of the best books I've read in the Capital Crimes series. It's an intriguing story of murder, corruption, and conspiracy. I always enjoy the Washington D.C. details in these books, although many references are now dated, and this story adds Copenhagen and London to the mix. The main characters, Captain Sal Morizio and Officer Connie Lake of the Washington MPD, are appealing, and Truman does a good job of weaving the story of their personal romantic relationship into the main story of the murder investigation that they are working on. The secondary characters are generally well drawn. The story has some good twists and turns and on the whole is quite satisfying.
