Description
Nationally best-selling author Michael McGarrity's Slow Kill is a stunning addition to a series The New York Times hails as "robust." When Santa Fe police chief Kevin Kerney finds the dead body of hotel magnate Clifford Spalding, he thinks he knows who to talk to, as the deceased man had known enemies. But little does Kerney know that the truth may go back 30 years to the day when Spalding's son mysteriously disappeared.

      • content: Michael McGarrity's SLOW KILL is narrated by George Guidall. There's nothing else that needs to be said. Guidall reading a book is like having Michael Jordan on your basketball team: you already know it's going to be great. Guidall's delivery is impeccable as he tells the story of Santa Fe Police Chief Kevin Kerney, who finds the dead body of a millionaire while horse trading. Guidall guides the listener through a complex plot as police learn about the sexual proclivities of the victim's wife and the mystery of the victim's son, a Vietnam vet who was reported dead. In another narrator's hands the plot would be less plausible, but Guidall makes you believe every word. It's a winner, naturally. M.S.

        July 26, 2004
        In McGarrity's latest Kevin Kerney procedural, Kerney, police chief of Santa Fe, N.Mex., is drawn into a messy murder investigation while vacationing at a California ranch. A wealthy hotel magnate, Clifford Spalding, dies of poisoning in the guest room next to Kerney's. Finding himself a suspect, Kerney decides to pursue the case on his own for a few days, uncovering some peculiar circumstances and characters in Spalding's background. They include an unfaithful trophy wife and her shady boyfriend, a deranged and bitter ex-wife and a missing son who presumably died in Vietnam 30 years ago, as well as a couple of police officials who are not as forthcoming as one would expect. Within a few days, Kerney is cleared by California authorities and returns home to more familiar ground. But because of the case's Santa Fe connections, he and his stable of detectives continue the pursuit. As in McGarrity's eight previous Kerney novels (Everyone Dies;
        etc.), the author excels at detailing police procedures as well as creating a homespun, wry tone that suits setting and characters. His action sequences are shakier, however, and several highly dramatic moments—the arrest of the main suspect, her release and eventual capture—are flat and hurried. A bit more attention to pacing and momentum could give this appealing series a needed shot of adrenaline. Agent, Barney Karpfinger.
