Live Bait by P. J. Tracy
I went to Border’s (something I don’t do often enough anymore) and picked up three books hoping to find a new mystery author I could enjoy. I lucked out in that two of them (this one and Trophy Wife) were thoroughly enjoyable and the third (Murder on Lennox Hill) was passable. The funny thing is that all three have sucky titles. How hard is it to come up with a title that will, if nothing else, help you remember which book you’ve read later?
Live Bait was really entertaining but has pretty much zero to do with live bait. It’s about old people getting murdered because they turn out to be murderers themselves. And the Holocaust. I think the author(s) managed to work the term live bait in there once but it was really a stretch.
This was a continuation of an earlier book with the same characters which I certainly might pick up at some point.
