David Rosenfelt, author of the Andy Carpenter books, has a new series out starting with The K Team. There are a few familiar characters here along with some new (including a retired police dog named Simon Garfunkel). A judge has received threats, that 'something' is coming, something he has already been paid for and now he will have to do his part. Included with the email is evidence of money, lots of it, in an account in the Caymans. The thing is, the account isn't his, it's a set up. How can he prove it? That's where the K team comes in, they are hired to quietly, without alerting the police (yet) resolve this? Who are they? And why? Not a bad start, love the dog.

If you are in the mood for a couple of quick, fun reads (no bodies, just a mystery) then go for Lady Gold Investigates, which is Volume 4 in the collection of short stories about this character by Lee Strauss. There is a haunted castle (or is it?), and a missing goose, that ends up on someone's doorstep. Fun!
