Knockdown by Sarah Graves

This series changed a few books ago. Before, it was a cozy mystery series, told in the first person. Now, all the books focus on the characters being in danger and are told in the third person. I liked it much better when the main character was solving mysteries. I find the "character in peril" plots boring.

Also, this series has continuity issues with the characters' back stories, especially what we learn about the main characters' earlier lives in Manhattan.
