a little more graphic than i like but still a typical elvis cole book
This was a fast read and I really enjoyed it. Another great Robert Crais book.
Crais is every bit as good as the classic noir writers. Yes, as good as Chandler and Hammett. If you like your mysteries blended with some memorable prose this is the guy for you.

Since being introduced to Robert Crais and reading Free Fall and then this book, The Forgotten Man I have read 5 other novels by him.
In the Elvis Cole series: Elvis may have found his long lost father. Unfortuantely, he's been shot and killed in an L.A. alleyway. Cole goes in search of answers.
Is this dying man in the alley PI Cole's long lost father? Is this man a killer? Cole tries to stay away from the case and soon finds himself consumed in nothing but the answers to this stranger's murder.
Great costello book
Typical Robert Crais - Excellant - He writes a story that holds you to the last page..
Definitely did not expect this book's plot to unfold the way it did. Great storytelling with everything neatly wrapped up at the end.
A good page-turner with some surprising twists that you don't see coming. Once I started I couldn't put it down.
P.I. Elvis Cole has never known his father. So when he is told by police that a murder victim's last words were that he is his father, he naturally starts investigating. The more clues Cole discovers, the more he becomes convinced that the murdered man is not related to him. But why would he say, how would he know that Cole has been searching for his father all his life?
Someone else is also looking for the victim, who apparently disappeared a few days before his death without letting anyone know. That person is on a collision course with Cole.
I really liked this book: good story, well-drawn characters. It kept me guessing until the end.

Another fine one from Crais. It may be a cliche, but so true, this is a hard one to put down!
Great bonus with this book- it is an authentic autographed copy and, as usual, another excellent outing by Robert Crais and the World's Greatest Detective, Elvis Cole.
