Search - The Hearse You Came in On (Hitchcock Sewell, Bk 1)

This first book in the series gives us a new and interesting character. I can't say that I've read a lot about morticians, especially funny ones. Hitch Sewell is a funny guy, with lots of snide and wry observations. The story is an enjoyable read.

I read this one and the next, but after two books, I was finding that I really didn't like Hitch very much. He has very loose morals; I found his way of thinking not aligned with mine. It was uncomfortable to go around with a guy who is not faithful to his woman (girlfriend in this case) and doesn't feel conflicted by that.

So read the first one, enjoy the funny situations, and try not to identify with Hitch too much.

A very entertaining undertaker combined with a good mystery makes good reading

Don't let Cockey's wry dialog and observations fool you, this is a nitty gritty murder story with plenty of curves and turns to keep you reading until the end.

The first in the Hitchcock Sewell series.

This was an enjoyable read...fast paced, funny and I didn't want to put it down.
