In the interest of full disclosure, I should probably mention that I've known Josh since I was in college and that he's the same Josh who was my sushi-and-Sedaris companion on Saturday. AND that I got a signed copy of this for my recent birthday. :)
But I'm pretty sure I would have loved this book (his third) just as much if he were a complete stranger and not the awesome, fun guy he is.
This is his latest in the Killian Kendall series. Killian's about to graduate high school and things aren't going so well. He's just broken up with his boyfriend and he's not sure what he wants to do with his life. And then he gets a sort of apprenticeship at a local PI firm and things become clear: that's what he wants to do.
Then the ex-boyfriend (Asher) shows up, asking for help. Asher's new boyfriend, Caleb, has been arrested for murdering his father. He wants Killian to prove that Caleb's not guilty.
Plus, in addition to the murder mystery, there's also a ghost story. Awesome. :)
Killian's a good detective, but he's a bit dim. (Shane Novak, who runs the firm, keeps making references that Killian doesn't get. One of them is the sinking of the Lusitania. And there's also the fact that Killian keeps running into potentially dangerous situations by himself. But he's sweet and such a good guy that he's impossible to dislike.)
Incredibly fun, suspenseful book. I can't wait for book 4 to be released. :)
