To be honest Snow Blind isn't the high quality masterpiece that the initial Monkeewrench was. Although not as good as the predecessors and certainly more predictable than the other novels it is still a great read for anyone and not just fans of P.J. Tracy. I would advise anyone to START reading the series from the beginning.

Of their alternating protagonists, I actually prefer the detectives, but that's a personal choice. I appreciate the humor in their writing, offsetting the very serious subject of abuse with the completely inexperienced new Sheriff in Dundas County. Grace and the gang hardly featured at all, being that I really like that group and the technology angle, I was somewhat disappointed but I didn't feel the story was any the less for that.

It's not quite right to call this a mystery, but it doesn't quite fall under the police-procedural heading, either. Whatever it is, it's a lot of fun. If you haven't yet discovered Monkeewrench, you should.
