Serpent's Tooth is something of a surprise because Faye Kellerman's mysteries are usually so upfront and personal.... here she deviates from her formula by putting Decker in charge of a mass murder at a fashionable L.A. eatery. The scope of the investigation is broad and the moralizing is kept to a minimum, giving Decker a rare chance to do some solid police work.

My 1st Faye Kellerman novel & I plan to read more. I've never come across Orthodox Jewish detectives before & the culture is worked into the plot quite naturally. A good mystery.
