Simon Rand, generally regarded as the least respected restaurant critic in America, dies from a heart attack in San Francisco. Or did he expire from natural causes? The answer kicks off another wild Pinky and Bear mystery that takes the dynamic team to Camden, New Jersey, Copenhagen, Denmark, and SkellefteƄ, Sweden. During their travels, Pinky becomes personally acquainted with a Mafia Don, his oversized thugs, and a helicopter ride over the Atlantic, while Bear, Flo, and Ettamae visit Sweden where Bear discovers more well-developed blondes than he thought existed in the entire world.


Review

What an exciting and unique premise for a Mystery Novel. First of all, that blurb completely drew me in. I was pleasantly surprised by the way Ken Dalton was able to keep me on my toes. I  love reading mystery's and trying to figure out who is behind it all. I'll have to admit, I was surprised in a couple of places throughout the novel. A Great Suspense/Thriller with lots of action to the very last chapter.

Fifty-nine years ago he married his childhood sweetheart and is a father of three, a grandfather of four, and the great-grandfather of nine.

After a thirty-eight year management career with Pacific Telephone Company, Ken retired to write golf and travel articles for Golf Digest, Golf Illustrated, Fairways and Greens, and Golf.com.
