Description

After twenty-five years in prison for murdering a couple of cheerleaders, a quarterback, and the class president, "Hackin'" Howard Rheinhart gets discharged. His case is assigned to Schlitz-drinking, Elvis-loving social worker and pro boxer Duffy Dombrowski. Soon, local high-school VIPs start showing up dead and Howard is nowhere to be found. Duffy throws himself into Howard's defense while juggling a few problems of his own--like a huge upcoming boxing match, a new hormonal girlfriend, the show more unsolicited devotion of a goofy karate kid, and the ongoing misadventures of Allah-King, Duffy's Muslim basset hound. show less

Duffy and Al are at it again, getting involved in a murder - make that multiple murders. This is a fun series even if there are only two books in the series! By all rights I shouldn't like this series, after all the main characters boxes and I'm not a boxing fan, he has a basset hound and I like dogs but I'm not a big basset fan, so this series always surprises me. Duffy spends his non-work time either at a bar, boxing or in his trailer with his basset hound, Al. So, how can he get into so much trouble? Read the book to find out - but if you want the background go read On The Ropes first, it's the first in the series.

Highly recommended.
