Title: Enjoyed It
Product review: The Monkey's Raincoat by Robert Crais is the first Elvis Cole novel, and it was a treat to read the early days of the Elvis Cole/Joe Pike partnership. I have read many of the later books in the series so I really enjoyed this one. Elvis is called in to look for a missing husband and son and before the case is over, he has left a trail of dead and battered bodies and outwitted some mobsters. Crais did a good job of setting up his two characters, as well as recurring character of police detective Lou Poitras. I could have done without Elvis hopping into bed with two of the female characters, but that's a minor quibble. This was a fast paced, enjoyable read and a good start to what has become one of my favorite series.
