One of the best thrillers I have read in a long time. This is certainly a book to keep you guessing and one of Hoag's better books....and her books are all good.

The Kovac/Liska series were some of my favorites. The characters were my favorite part of this book. The story was a bit off for me. But the detectives kept it going for me.

Veteran cop Sam Kovac and partner Nikki Liska are investigating several things at once. An internal affairs cop dead of apparent suicide, a paraplegic cop dead of apparent suicide, a 20 year old murder where one of the current victims was a victim, a closed case of a homosexual cops brutal murder and the fun just keeps coming. Sam and Liska may be partners but they investigate different aspects of these cases and rarely actually work together which I found strange. I listened to the audiobook which was unabridged but it still seemed at times that key things were skipped. By this I mean, one or the other would find something out without the partner present, yet in the next scene, the other knew about it and they had never discussed the event. Sam and Liska apparently had conversations that weren't written as part of the novel. Really weird and disconcerting.

Tami Hoag doesn't skimp on the graphic details but to lessen the impact, she quickly follows up with smart aleck comments from both Kovac and Liska. She writes using a wonderful mix of humor and horror. Another wonderfully plotted mystery with twists, turns and surprises.

Internal Affairs cop Andy Fallon is found dead in his home, hanging naked in his bedroom. The word "sorry" is written on the mirror. Was it suicide? An accident? Detectives Sam Kovac and Nikki Liska interview friends and family. Andy had been depressed after coming out to his father. He was also looking into a case where a gay detective had been murdered. The department orders a quick autopsy and Andy's case is declared an accident, but instinct tells Kovac and Liska that there is more going on than meets the eye.

This is the second book in the Kovac/Liska series. It pulls you in from the beginning. Did Andy kill himself or was it a murder? Does his death have something to do with a 20-year-old case where a cop was murdered and another, Andy's own father, was left paralyzed? Or could it be Andy's current case where a gay detective was bludgeoned to death? We're given lots of clues, enough to actually figure out what happened to Andy, and what happened to his father 20 years ago. My rating: 4 Stars.

Sorry. The single word was written on a mirror. In front of it hung the Minneapolis International Affairs cop. Was it suicide? Or a kinky act turned tragic? Either way, it wasn't murder. At least not according to the posers that be. But veteran homicide detective Sam Kovac and his wisecracking, ambitious partner Nikki Liska think differently. Together they begin to dig at the too=neat edges of the young cop's death, uncovering one motive and one suspect after another. The shadows of suspicion fall not only on the city's elite, but into the very heart of the police department. Someone wants the case closed=quickly and forever. But neither Kovac nor Liska will give up. Now both their careers and their lives are on the line. From murder case two months old to another case closed for twenty years, Kovac and Liska must unearth a connection the killer wants dead and buried. A killer who will stop at absolutely nothing to keep a dark and shattering secret...
