************ Superficial, aren't they? I've read two and loved them both. Especially Deep Blue Goodbye. Great intense ending. Can't remember the name of the other one right now. Down in Mexico with his sidekick. Lesbians, too, which is always a plus. The philosophizing that some love, I never gained a fondness for.
