I spent June and July reading the entire Garrett P.I. series from start to finish. I really like the series as a whole, but the last two books were pretty tough. On one hand, there is a particular female character that was booted from the series that I was happy to see go. On the other hand, I felt that Morley, Playmate, Saucerhead Tharpe, and Winger also had reduced time which was unfortunate since I really like them as characters. I think the series hit its high-water mark on the third to last book, Cruel Zinc Melodies. All the main characters I grew to love so much showed their own character developments and had moments to shine.
