Title: Not up to par.
Product review: Once you have read one Joe Gunther, you can predict the story structure for all the rest. Crime happens, wrong person accused, lots of investigative work and bingo, someone else did it. The fun in reading the books is solving the puzzle. Unfortunately, this Joe Gunther did not meet the excellence of the first three. Boring is the relevant word.
