Elvis Still Going Strong


Robert Crais is another author that I keep up with. Chasing Darkness is the 15th book in his ongoing LA crimes series. And like most of the others it features intrepid Private Eye Elvis Cole and his calm but dangerous partner Joe Pike.

After being indirectly blamed for two horrific murders, Elvis feels compelled to dig into an old case, all the while battling the higher levels of the police department who are doing all they can to close it down. A conspiracy? A cover-up? Dirty cops? Elvis with his usual luck, humor, and charm sorts it all.

A good read and can be read alone, but to get more depth of the various characters I would recommend starting at the beginning of the series.
