The Investigator (Letty Davenport, #1)

Lettie is basically Lucas with tits, which I expected, & there were enough nods to her sex to make her seem enough like a chip off the old block that the resemblance didn't become a burden. In this, I think he did a better job than Connelly has done with Renee, a female version of Harry. (I really like & read Connelly's books as soon as they come out.)
The story was really good. I could certainly see the events depicted happening today. Hopefully we'll have a heroine & her trusty side kick available if they do. It's probably a question of when & I probably don't know about several attempts that have been stopped. It's that well done.
He also did a good job of working Letty's back story in. That's tough to do. He didn't bore me with it & I've read every book in the series in order, but there's enough meat in the flashbacks & explanations that you'll get a good picture of her even if this is the first book you've picked up. (If it is, I highly recommend reading the rest of his books in order. After book 17, start reading a Virgil Flowers book every other time. A lot of books, but worth it.)
Well narrated, as always, but Lettie is too good to be true. The story isn't 'just a little Hollywood', unfortunately.
