Cold Copper Tears<\/a><\/em> (1988) Glen Cook<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Garrett isn’t looking to take any work. Unfortunately, a beautiful woman charms her way through Dean and asks Garrett to take her case. He doesn’t want the work, so passes it along to someone else, but soon someone else–a high church official is asking Garrett to take on a different case. He turns this one down as well, but someone–somewhere–doesn’t want him to get involved and so tries to put Garrett out of their misery.<\/p>\n

A fun romp that mixes fantasy with hard boiled mystery, the Garrett P.I. series is fun–nothing amazing or earth shattering, but a nice change of pace.<\/p>\n

I read this as an eBook.
