#2 Berger & Mitry mystery featuring NY movie critic Mitch Berger, a pudgy white Jewish guy, and his new girlfriend, State Trooper, budding artist and bodacious black woman Desiree Mitry. When a local teacher is burned up in a car crash caused by a high-powered rifle shooting the gas tank, speculation abounds as to whether the intended victim was really Moose or her half-sister Takai, an exotically beautiful but much-disliked real estate agent. That they are both daughters of a famous reclusive local sculptor only adds fuel to the fire. Des and Mitch are both thrown into the investigation, Des in a professional capacity and Mitch at the behest of the sculptor, whom Mitch recently met and who is mourning for his beloved daughter Moose. Enjoyable, well-written and with great characters.
