Lee Goldberg ~ Murder by Design

Amazon first read.  Started on 5/11/26.  245 pages.  Looked good so I thought I’d try it.

Edison Bixby.  Detective.  Shot in face.  Lived.  Needed a side kick to continue to work.
Grant Murdock.  Executive chef, narcissist and playboy.  Drops dead from his Gumbo recipe at a big event.
Bridget McGregor.  Detective.

Finished 5/20/26.  Really good book.  Main characters well written.  Names got confusing later in the book but mysteries were still solved.
I will read the other books that come out in this series.

9 Days.  I’m giving this book a 9/10.  It kept my interest.
